Description

Darren Springer will be presenting a talk about the history and nature of mycology and permaculture and offering an introductory workshop. Mushrooms have been used for millennia as both food and medicine by ancient cultures. In this presentation Darren explores the connection between these practices and the principles of permaculture which you also find interwoven in these ancient traditions. He will reveal to you the amazing world of fungi and the tools required to implement these technologies into your day to day life. Come and discover the hidden, and in some cases taboo knowledge and how it has become encoded in many cultures in our modern world!
