Rotters & Stinkers: a guide to Stinkhorns and other fungal peculiars

  • Hay Castle - Clore Space Oxford Road Hereford, Wales, HR3 5DG United Kingdom (map)

After last year’s sell-out talk, we’re delighted to welcome Ali Mac — AKA The FUNgi Guy — back to Fungi Town for another fungi-filled adventure, delivered in his own wonderfully inimitable style.  Expect games, puppets, questionable props and plenty of audience participation. In Ali’s world, learning about fungi is anything but a chore.

“I’m hoping to deliver a whizz-bangy tour of all things fungi, but this year with the added bonus of a special focus on stinkhorns. Being into fungi (and also my own odd little face), I’m no stranger to funny looks, scrunched-up faces and the occasional frown, so I decided to go full disdain this year -  I figured that carrying around a two-foot tall, fully working model of a stinkhorn should probably soften the blow. Prepare to be repulsed!”
