Fungi, makers and destroyers of homes talk and community meal

An evening of fungi and delicious food A seasonal meal and talk connecting people, nature, and our community garden. Join our new series of evening talks and meals, bringing together the community garden, the natural world, and the kitchen. Our wonderful guest speaker is Dr Christian Taylor, Associate Lecturer at the Open University School of Environment, Earth and Ecosystem Sciences. Dr Taylor will start with a walk on St Sidwell’s ground for a bit of identification followed by a talk on the wonderful world of fungi. Then sit down to a delicious home-cooked seasonal meal, focused on mushrooms of course! These evenings are a chance to learn something new, connect with the nature on our doorsteps, share a table with new (and old!) friends, and enjoy some delicious food. Coming later in the series: bats, autumn and winter growing, Ukrainian cooking and herbs, seed saving, fungi, fruit trees, and pruning and hedging. Watch this space!
