Our third foray is Magog Down, which is only a 25min bus ride from Cambridge.
When: 2nd November, approx 12:30pm-3pm (exact bus times etc will be shared upon ticket purchase)
Where to meet: near the carpark at Magog Down
Cost: £3 for non-members, free for members (you still need to register for a free ticket). Bus ticket is not included in the ticket price
This foray will be a relaxed 2 hour walk around the fields and woodlands, where we try find as many fungi as possible. Never been on a foray before? No worries! We welcome everyone regardless of fungal knowledge - come along and have a go at using our field guides to ID what you find!
Previous years have found dead man's fingers, amanitas, and turkey tail (though we can't guarantee we'll find any of these this year!)
If you own any mushroom field guides, feel free to bring them along! We will also provide ID guides to use on any fungi we locate. Make sure to wear appropriate footwear as it can get quite muddy, as well as warm clothing. Take with you any snacks/drinks you may want along the way.
To attend you must register for a ticket to this event: this gives us a better idea of how many are attending, and gives you access to a specific WhatsApp groupchat for this event where you can ask questions and share photos from the event.
Any questions? DM us on Instagram @mycosoc or join our WhatsApp GC :)
Hope to see you there!
