Mushrooms: Local Innovators Knowledge Drop

Wednesday, September 27th • 5-8pm

Boulder Chamber of Commerce

Have you heard all the buzz around mushrooms lately? Do the words mycelium or fruiting body have you wanting to learn more? If you are mushroom-curious and want to learn more, we’ve got an educational event for you! We’ve gathered three local mycology experts for an evening of mushroom appreciation!

Topics being explored:

• Mushroom 101 knowledge on topics including terminology, varietals, how to grow your own mushrooms at home and decriminalization of psilocybin.
• Chemistry of extraction and how this differs from plant medicine and how you can determine product quality from a consumer perspective?
• Wildfire mitigation and the philosophy around negative waste.

We haven’t scratched the surface on what the wonderful world of fungi has to teach us. Come hang out with your community and learn more!

Panel moderated by Shane Schoolman, CEO/Co-Founder/CWO of MyCOLove Farm.
