Organized by:
Viscri 32 - White Barn and Blue House
We celebrate autumn together with a hike in the highlands and forests near Viscri in search of wild mushrooms.
Guides:
Miruna Popa - biologist specialized in fungi, member of Slow Food Sibiu
Alexu Toader - founding member of Slow Food Viscri, local guide
Meeting point: Viscri 32 at 12:00.
Together we will learn how to identify and recognize several different species of wild mushrooms and have hands-on experience learning about mycology and how to forage for wild mushrooms. The guide will provide resources to help identify common edible mushrooms through literature and photos.
There's a chance that not every foraging experience will result in edible mushrooms, but be prepared for a full day of outdoor learning and experience!
