The Otways is home to an incredible array of bizarre & beautiful fungi.
This workshop introduces participants to the diversity & curiosities of local fungi with a focus on ecology, conservation & identification of fungal species.
It includes an interactive & illustrated seminar exploring the natural & cultural history of the major fungal groups, presenting both Australian & European perspectives.
