About the Event
Join Alison to wander through Mimosa Rocks National Park in search of fungi, learn to identify them, and explore questions about their natural and cultural histories. How do we differentiate the desirable from the deadly? How can fungi help us ‘read’ the history of the forest?
The Kingdom Fungi is a kingdom of conundrums. Who are these curious organisms and what exactly are they doing out there in the landscape? Although little known relative to animal and plants, fungi are fundamental to forest health and resilience. They create and stabilise soils, nourish and interconnect plants. They provide us with food and beverages, textiles and building materials, medicines and more.
