Jimena Mushroom Days coming up very soon

JIMENA (Cádiz) What I've called Mushroom Days for a few years now (and more formally known as Mycology Workshops, approximately) are scheduled to take place on the weekend of November 28, 29 and 30 in their 17th year (!). People come from all over Spain -- and these days from other places in Europe: I met five Hungarians looking for wild mushrooms the other day -- to take part in a full programme of mushroom-related activities (no, don't ask about anything hallucinogenic, they're not in on this deal) including field trips, sorting, lectures, etc. Most of the bars and restaurants will be offering mushroom-based tapas and dishes. This year's crop promises greatness, according to the experts, so if you're a wild mushroom fan, this is your time of year. (See the whole programme HERE)
