Fungus Foray (Yorkshire Fungi Fest 2025)

Join our Nature Reserve Team Leader, Jim, for a guided walk around Potteric Carr to spot what species of fungi are lurking in unexpected places!

Embrace your wild side - what to expect:

Children must always be accompanied by an adult.

What to bring/wear

We'd recommend sturdy and waterproof footwear or wellies, and lots of layers! It could still be midge and mosquito season so we highly recommend wearing insect repellent.
