About this Event
This two-day, one-night event will include inoculation workshops, guided hikes with mushroom experts, fungus forays, family programming, dehydration workshops, camping and more!
This is a space that is inclusive and encouraging for all folks to learn more about fungi and deepen their sense of place in Appalachian Ohio. They will come to learn about mushrooms and will stay for the friendship that they find amongst each other.
Tenderfoot Learning Lab is a beautiful place that provides healthy habitats of mixed mesophytic forests. Throughout the three miles of hiking trails you can expect to see a variety of tree species, including pine, white pine, red and white oaks, poplar, red maple, sassafras, beech, and some hemlocks and sycamores in the ravines. The Fall Fungi Festival provides an excellent display of a thriving Appalachian Ohio forest.
Vendor spots available for nature-inspired artists! Artists can choose from five time slots that are available throughout the weekend. No entry fee, just pay 10% of all sales. Vendors receive a Free Weekend Pass, a $75 value. Register by emailing us at [email protected]
