Join us at the Arboretum as we go in search of fascinating fungi. Learn more about the rich diversity of fungi native to our countryside and gardens, and about the crucial role they play in the ecosystem.

Free for members of FSO (Fungus Survey of Oxfordshire), members of the Ashmolean Natural History Society of Oxfordshire (ANHSO) or with an Arboretum entry ticket.

13:15 Talk by Professor Richard Fortey

14:00 - 16:00 Foray walk

Please note that this is not a foraging event; we will not be collecting fungi to take away and ask visitors to leave fungi for others to enjoy. UK Fungus Day is an annual celebration run by the British Mycological Society.

This event is included with your Arboretum entry ticket; you may book your ticket in advance but this is not required.
