Mycologist, educator, and community organizer Aaron Tupac (they/them) invites you to explore the wondrous world of fungi in this Second Thursday Garden Talk.
In addition to the essential roles that fungi play in ecosystems, Tupac has discovered that these fascinating organisms have much to teach us about mindfulness, interconnection, and relationships. They will share what they’ve learned about how to love mushrooms, mushrooms found in LA, and how to contribute to the science of fungi. They will also discuss becoming a mycologist, queerness in biology, and the ways that fungi appreciation fosters community and connection. A plant sale follows the talk in the Plant Sale Nursery.
