Here are all sorts of links to various Fungi Societies, groups, associations and groups from various Countries internationally. There’s more than what’s listed here, so make sure you explore and investigate or ‘forage’ for clues in case you don’t find what you’re looking for.
If you have suggestions for how to make the links better or more inclusive, please contact us.
Societies are typically a good place to start and connect with people and they’re friendly and the majority of them are non-profit groups. There’s a lot of good information from book recommendations to online resources on their websites and youtube or other content pages.
The cool thing about these societies is that you can join them and meet up and learn or explore or go on expeditions, workshops, adventures, and forays. A Great connection for the Fungi-Interested.
