upcoming workshop:This workshop covers the core skills for safe mushroom foraging, identification and fungal ecology. Placed in a modern context, the presenter will demonstrate the importance of being familiar with and conscious of the natural world around us via a connection with the fungal realm. Maya will show how mushroom identification can be used to increase personal and community resilience, through foraging for food and medicine while monitoring endangered species to preserve threatened habitats. We will explore regenerative practices to inform our decisions about what, when, where and how we pick mushrooms.

Fungi are everywhere, acting as agents of multi-dimensional transformation. You don’t have to go out into the forest to find fungi, they are in our bodies, spores are in the air, they are a part of the food we eat. They are so intrinsic to our existence that many don’t even notice them, but people all over the world have been co-evolving with Fungi for millennia. When we connect with these symbiotic processes consciously and build skill around developing these relationships, including within our own ancestry, we unlock the potential for larger scale multi-dimensional transformation on social, cultural, psychological and ecological levels.
