In this workshop, Mark Wright will introduce species of fungi found in Northern Ireland. We will look at features used to identify them and what resources are available to help. The introduction will take place in the education room at Peatlands Park where teas and coffees will be provided. After the introduction, we will explore the nearby grounds of Peatlands Park to find species to identify and put your new-found skills into practice.
