The event organiser, who's a real fun guy, asked KTLN to tell you all about it.

It all kicks off at 10am on Friday 8th April, with a panel of experts talking about products from the forest, Morels and other fungi, and medical herbs. Talks and seminars will mostly be conducted in both Turkish and English.

Most of the events over the three days are free, but there is a small charge if you want to go on mushroom forays, into the forest.

Other interesting aspects of the event include how to identify different mushrooms, and how to know what is safe to eat. There will also be tips on how to cook these tasty morsels from the forest floor.

You will find local arts and craftwork on display, plus there will be live music. There is even fun for the children, with face painting, donkey tours, kites and story telling.
