Following in the French tradition of Café Philosophique, Café Champignon brings the curiosities of the Kingdom Fungi into active conversation.
While enjoying a fabulous fungus-inspired lunch in the Northern Republic restaurant, Alison Pouliot ecologist, author and photographer will introduce us to the wonders of the Kingdom Fungi. She’ll share her experiences across hemispheres in pursuit of fungi and their followers.
We will also launch Alison’s new book, which is about fungi and the photography of fungi, The title – Funga Obscura – unites the two.
Through her stories we’ll cross continents and ecosystems, navigate lichen-covered landscapes, crawl in the fungal undergrowth, scale glacial extremes and duck between rainforest shadows.
You’ll also have the opportunity to purchase signed copies of Alison’s books, The Allure of Fungi, Wild Mushrooming, Underground Lovers and Funga Obscura.
