Welcome to the largest wild mushroom happening in North America, the 44th Annual Telluride Mushroom Festival! A plethora of events ranging from foray and mushroom ID sessions, to hands-on demonstrations, to lectures—all led by regionally-, nationally-, and internationally-known experts, (and we cannot forget the Parade!) there is plenty for everyone each and every day.

On this website, you can filter your search by events, venues, presenters, etc. Each year the Mushroom Festival features many wonderful presentations on “all things fungi.” Presentations on similar topics are grouped together at the same venue so that attendees interested will be able to spend more time learning and interacting, and less time walking between venues. See who else is interested in each event and interact with our extended Mushroom Family. See you soon!

Whether new to the world of fungus or a veteran myconaut, this foray provides a great chance to dedicate some quality time with the many species we love. Expect an outing that lasts a few hours, outside of town.

Where to Meet.
This foray meets at Carhenge Parking Lot at 9:15am. We invite you to arrive a few minutes early to get acquainted with your fellow foragers! TMF does not provide transportation. We encourage all participants to carpool as much as possible!

Be Prepared!
A friendly reminder to come prepared for inclement weather with good footwear, properly hydrated, with snack and stories to share. A basket, reusable grocery bag, old shirt, paper bag, or tupperware help collect mushrooms. For a full list of recommended foray gear, please see our TMF Foray Checklist (click here).
