Autumn Edible Mushrooms - Lecture and Mushroom Exhibition — Herttoniemen kirjasto, Helsinki

During this one-hour lecture, we will cover identification of the most common edible mushrooms, their lookalikes, and the most dangerous poisonous species. You'll also receive practical tips on which mushrooms are worth collecting and which to leave in the forest - plus advice on finding the best mushroom spots.

The lecture concludes with a mushroom exhibition where you can examine autumn mushrooms more closely. The lecturer is biologist and wild-food expert Anna Nyman.
