We invite you to listen to Dr. Marta Kujawska’s lecture entitled “How will climate change affect mushroom picking?”
Mushroom picking is a centuries-old traditional form of forest recreation in Poland. Many popular edible forest mushrooms are symbiotic fungal species related to specific tree species, e.g. pine, spruce, birch. It is predicted that the observed climate change may significantly affect the species structure of the forests we know, which in the future, may indirectly translate into the contents of the basket of future future mushroom pickers.
