Thrifty Thursdays: Ben Carter on Truffles

Hunting The World’s Finest Fungi. As the truffle season draws to a close, join Ben Carter from Wild Resources for a special interactive talk on these earthy delicacies. Ben Carter is Director of Wild Resources, who specialise in educating and informing the community on sustainable foraging, forestry and fishing practices. At this special event, Carter will share his great knowledge on truffles – including how to find them and what to do with them once you have. This is a free event, however booking is required Register here This event is part of Thrifty Thursdays – a series of free events running alongside the current exhibition ‘The Land We Live In – The Land We Left Behind’. Taking the exhibition as a starting point to explore themes relating to the rural, each week a different artist, writer, gardener, land-worker, academic or performer will join us. The bar will be open before the event from 5.45 pm until 6.30 pm. Please note, the main exhibition will be closed, however the Bourgeois Gallery, which is the final room in the exhibition, will be open. For those guests walking to and from the gallery in the winter months, we suggest you carry a torch to light the path through the fields after dark.
