We intend to hold the 2024 foray at the Havelock Town Hall (Marlborough, South Island) during May 12 – 18. It is recommended that any travel booked is refundable until the DOC permit is confirmed and iwi engagement is successfully concluded. If all is on track with the permit, foray registration will open in March as per previous years.

Foray 2022 postponed til 2023

Submitted by Bevan Weir on Thu, 14/04/2022 - 10:05am

Dear FUNNZ members

I am writing to advise that the FUNNZ Committee decided last week to postpone the in-person Rotorua Fungal Foray until next year. This was a difficult decision but was arrived at because of the dual issues of managing the foray under the current covid restrictions, in particular the issue of running the foray effectively if people become symptomatic during the foray, as well as wanting to ensure that the institutions supporting the foray organisers are satisfied with the level of iwi and community engagement that has taken place.

2022 foray update

Submitted by Bevan Weir on Wed, 16/03/2022 - 12:49am

The FUNNZ committee will meet in early April to assess whether it is feasible to hold a foray in 2022 under pandemic conditions. Institutional guidelines impacting key individuals need to be followed, as well as government guidance. If the Rotorua foray is postponed to 2023, the committee will look to support a shorter, virtual event, encouraging participants to explore their local terrain. Keep well, and we will endeavour to post information about the foray by Tuesday April 12th.
