Interest stems from a range of inclinations, from culinary to scientific to just plain curiosity. Come join as Telluride hosts a fantastic and fun weekend where you’re bound to learn something new! Activities range from mushroom lectures given by the most knowledgeable of experts, to cooking with mushrooms and guided hikes with instruction on how to find the freshest (and safest) mushrooms.
