Ticket price includes supplies for making 8 oz of medicinal mushroom extract.
Extracts and medicinal mushroom preparations don’t have to taste bad, this doesnt make taking them for our general wellness as easy. Lets try something different! Getting creative with recipes and treating mushrooms like Turkey Tail, Lions Mane + Reishi as the ingredient to inspire a DIY, intuitive approach to making extracts, like vinegars, tinctures + oxymels. Learn ways we can tap into the seasons, for both our fungi we plan to use but also what's growing around us at farms, forest + even in our yards. Lets work with some classic combo of tastes and flavors but with a little twist. Together we explore and open your palate by mixing the gastronomic + functionality of fungi and their allies.
