Myco Network Meet-Up: Falmouth #2

The Culturing Dish Beach Feast
Saturday 27 June, 12–5pm
Gyllyngvase Beach, Falmouth

A frivolous fungi-themed beach picnic for meeting new people, sharing ideas and building community.

Bring games, beach things, and something tasty and fungi-themed for the beach feast. Think mushroom snacks, mycelial bakes, foresty nibbles, spore-inspired treats, or whatever “for The Dish” means to you.

We may also do a BBQ if the weather and logistics behave, so feel free to bring something BBQ-able too (there is a co-op by the beach if you need last-minute snacks/drinks).

What to bring:

• A fungi-themed dish / a BBQ for The Dish
• Picnic blanket
• Suncream, sunnies and a hat
• Beach games, regular games, cards, frisbees, balls, or anything fun
• Optimism that it will not rain

We’ll meet on Gyllyngvase Beach. Look out for the mushroom balloon, fungi flag, or a suspiciously enthusiastic cluster of mushroom people somewhere on the sand.

Wet weather plan:
If lichens and moss start falling from the heavens, we’ll switch to a pub plan instead. Same general area, but we’ll post an update on the day and likely start from around 12pm for a relaxed wander/pub crawl nearby. Keep an eye out on socials!
