Introduction to mushroom science

This two-day seminar is aimed at anyone who would like to explore the exciting field of fungi. A theoretical introduction will give you an insight into the way mushrooms live, the variety of species and the methods of mushroom identification. This is followed by a practical part with an excursion into the forest. Afterwards, all findings are discussed in detail, the theoretical content is consolidated and questions are answered. You will learn what to do if you suspect poisoning, what you are allowed to do in the forest - and what not.
