Wild Mushroom Foray & Demonstration Lunch Series with mushroom experts David Campbell & Julie Schreiber

These Special Events are Produced and Directed by Relish Culinary Adventures Healdsburg, CA.   Relish Culinary Adventures handles all Event registrations.  

Join foraging expert David Campbell on a wild mushroom foray in the hills and woods of select local wineries.  Participants will learn the fundamentals of edible wild mushroom foraging, including what trees and terrain to look for, the most easily-recognizable edible mushrooms of our region, safety, foraging etiquette, and more. We'll gather all of our found mushrooms, edible or not, to use as examples of identifying characteristics.

After working up an appetite from our tromp in the beautiful woods, we'll gather for a fungal focused cooking demonstration led by chef Julie Schreiber, featuring the handling and cooking of a variety of wild and exotic mushrooms. We'll cook up any edibles we may find along with our amazing four-course mushroom lunch, to be served with winery selected wines.
