Saturday, November 5, 12-5 pm

The 2016 Mushroom, Wine & Beer event takes a nostalgic turn at Day Camp for grown-ups on Saturday, November 5 from approximately 12:00PM to 5:00PM, and benefits the Mendocino County Museum.

The cross-county Skunk Train is still NOT available this year, so we’re reprising the lively mushroom dish competition, wine and beer tasting, along with great barbecue, expanding the options for activities, and shortening the transportation time, with the event taking place at Wente Scout Reservation, a beautiful camp on a lake surrounded by walking trails, a mere 15-minutes east of the Town of Willits.

Guests enjoy mushroom dishes prepared by local chefs, a cook-off contest judged by celebrity guests, locally crafted beer and wine, mushroom walks, talks, games, nature crafts, music and more. This year, a barbeque will accompany the Mushroom, Wine, and Beer tastings for lunch.

The 2016 Mushroom, Wine & Beer Camp is the signature event for Visit Mendocino County’s 17th Annual Mushroom, Wine & Beer Festival, which runs from November 4-13, 2016.

Proceeds from the camp event support the Mendocino County Museum’s mission to collect, conserve, present and celebrate the stories, artifacts, and lives of the people and places of Mendocino County.

Experience a tasting adventure!

Guests will still enjoy the popular mushroom cook-off contest prepared by chefs, locally crafted beer and wine, and mushroom walks and talks (led by Mendocino’s own mushroom expert, Eric Schramm), but this year will also feature camp-themed games, nature crafts, music and more. A barbeque will also accompany the Mushroom, Wine, and Beer tastings.
