Wild mushrooms: Sylviculture, production, tourism, consumption

Our French partner National Centre for Forest Ownership (CNPF) organises the Science to Practice event Wild mushrooms: Sylviculture, production, tourism, consumption, which will take place in St-Bonnet-le-Froid, France, on 6^th and 7^th October, aimed at tourism actors, forestry actors, restaurants and other territorial actors.

The objectives of this event are:

• To explain the principles of mycosilviculture, which combines wood and mushroom production.
• To present some examples of territorial projects in France and abroad based on mushrooms’ valorization and associating forest owners, forest managers, processing companies and tourism sector.
• Towards a structured local mushroom industry : encouraging a collective exchange on the opportunity of a project aiming at structuring a local mushroom industry.

The program is available here. The two days are complementary. They can nevertheless be followed independently of each other.
