"Navigating Functional Mushrooms” with Ryath Fujita Beauchene

PLEASE JOIN US IN WELCOMING RYATH FUJITA BEAUCHENE ON NOVEMBER 14TH, 2024 AT 4PM PT•5PM MT•6PM CT•7PM ET

Are you overwhelmed by or skeptical of all the "mushroom products" out there? Do you want to know what to look for, what questions to consider and what makes effective medicine? Whether you are doubtful, buying in stores, or interested in making your own fungal medicines, come join Ryath Fujita Beauchene for an online presentation exploring the intersections of fungal biochemistry, fungalism & the functional mushroom industry. Ryath will also cover some of the medicinal mushroom research, DIY techniques, nutrition & interpreting product labels. We will have plenty of time for questions about the material and we are planning a follow-up to this presentation with a more specific focus on the mushrooms of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Ryath Fujita Beauchene is a Californian mycological educator and the Vice President of the Sonoma County Mycological Association. Ryath has been a mushroom forager, cultivator and researcher for sixteen years and teaches about fungal ecology, ethnomycology, mushroom identification & cultivation, fungalism and the functional mushroom industry. He is a co-steward of both Moon Fruit Mushroom Farm and Symbiiotica, as well as an estate manager and trained horticulturist, with a particular interest in adaptogens, ethnomycology, cooking, semantics, symbiosis and how ecosystem health includes human health. Lately, Ryath has been peering through the portals of alchemy, phytochemistry, Buddhist koans, and medical herbalism. It is Ryath's hope that by showing people the valuable potency of natural medicines that we may become more devoted and reciprocal in our relationships to our planet's diverse ecologies and peoples.
