Funga Fest is more than a conference — it’s a gathering of curious minds, passionate mushroom lovers, and fungi fanatics from all over Israel (and beyond). Whether you're a researcher, student, grower, forager, chef, or just someone who loves mushrooms, there’s something here for you.
Join us for expert talks, guided foraging trips, hands-on workshops, tastings, tours, and discussions on everything from fungal medicine to food tech, culture, and climate.
We’re bringing together people from all walks of life — scientists, artists, farmers, cooks, and everyday enthusiasts — to celebrate fungi and their growing role in science, society, and our daily lives.
