For centuries from China to Mesoamerica and Europe, mushrooms have been scouted, eaten, and even worshipped. In the herbal and neutraceutical world, Paul Stamets has become a huge proponent and marketer within the herbal medicine market which keeps on growing.

Today many are options in the grocery stores' produce isles as well as in the health food store supplement section making it difficult to choose or even know how to use. In this class, you will learn the what, the why, and the how. We will cover culinary mushrooms like the porcini, chantarelles, oyster, morels, enoki, and common white button as well as the reishi, maitake, shitaki, Chaga, lion's mane, turkey tail, and psilocybin mushrooms.

By the end of this 3 week's course you will be empowered, know how to prepare culinary mushrooms, how to select medicinal mushrooms, and understand what the buzz about psilocybin, which is still considered a Schedule 1 drug, sharing the rank with marijuana, peyote, and the likes is.

As usual, Sonia will provide you with individual monographs rich with salient information to cement your knowledge and use as a building block and guideline.

This class will be live on Zoom with sessions recorded and links provided. The dates are April 17, April 24, and May 01, 2023, from 3-5 MT.
