Our Fungi Futures project is a celebration of fungi's potential to nourish our bodies, minds & wider communities. Our artful activities will promote the transformative power of mushrooms through a "grow your own" ethos, cultivating community, sustainable food & creative connection.
These hands-on community workshops will go beyond practical cultivation skills & include diverse creative activities inspired by the metaphors of fungi. We're planning fun nourishing sessions that bring more mushrooms to community spaces, alongside supporting self-awareness, connection & creative play.
Attend either or both sessions.
Our sessions at Community Orchard are very limited capacity. These sessions open to:
Mycelium Thinking CIC members/volunteers
