This was the Societies first attempt at a full Zoom meeting and we were very pleased to welcome Ben Devine who was an enormous help in getting the ball rolling as we experienced a few problems prior to starting the meeting proper.
However once we got going Ben produced an excellent talk with illustrations and photo’s.
He walked us through various topics such as:-
-
How Fungi function
-
Uses of Fungi such as in medicine
-
Identification and collection
-
Noteworthy groups and interesting species
-
The pitfalls of eating Fungi
Then to finish the evening and to see how much we had been listening he had a quiz lined up.
This was a very entertaining evening and we are most grateful to Ben for his contribution.
