Wild Mushroom Festival
Put the 'fun' in fungi this fall with the return of our Wild Mushroom Festival!
Learn about mushroom hunting and identification through our woodland walks and talks with experts while you explore tastes of mushroom-themed food and drink from local chefs.
Shop our expanded Mushroom Marketplace, featuring the work of artists, crafters, growers and chefs.
Sample our signature mushroom beer and ice cream float, made specially for the festival by BarleyHead Brewery and Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream.
And new this year, our Fungi Fans online raffle! Your festival ticket includes $15 in complimentary raffle entries, featuring a highly-curated collection of mushroom-related tools, artwork, jewelry, clothing, experiences and growing supplies.
Advance purchase is required. Tickets will be limited, and event is expected to sell out.
