As part of the congress of the Mycological Society of France (SMF), around a hundred mycologists will travel to the undivided forest of Haguenau from October 9 to 15 to carry out inventories on mushrooms and other associated organisms, in order to increase knowledge of fungus. The National Forestry Office and the City of Haguenau are taking advantage of this congress to make our Exceptional Forest® and the importance of its mushrooms even better known to the general public. It is therefore a week of activities which is organized, with conferences, workshops for children and above all an exhibition of mushrooms harvested in the forest!
