AMS EXPOsed in plot to show off! Found guilty!
“City of Champignons” Mushroom Exposition is coming again this year to the Devonian Botanic Garden’s Pine Pavilion on Sunday, August 18 (11am – 4pm).
We will definitely be guilty of exposing our fungi in a public place. This is truly The Greatest Show from Earth!
This is Alberta Mycological Society’s showcase for the public. As mycological ambassadors, we will strut our stuff, and amaze you with hundreds of edible and incredible displays of fresh, wild mushrooms picked only the day before. This is a great learning experience for members and visitors alike, as most of the fungi displayed will have names put to them.
Bring your own mushrooms that you’ve found – talk to an expert and get a name on your treasure.
See our specialized displays with Edible, Poisonous, and Medicinal mushrooms. Browse through our sample field guides and coffee table books. Purchase cool mushroom stuff like posters, books, t-shirts and more. Sign up for memberships or upcoming activities. There will be gorgeous slide presentations, and a scheduled “Walk in the Garden” among other events.
Our wildly successful “Wild Mushroom Café” will offer delicious mushroom dishes for sale prepared by our Chef. Don’t worry, you’ll smell the wonderful aroma that will lead you to us. Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind event!
