📆 Saturday, August 9th, 6 PM

About the lecture...

Fungi are weird, fungi are cool, and fungi are beautiful. But how much do we really know about them? For starters, they do much more than just rot things. They control pretty much all life on our planet and are everywhere. Britt Bunyard’s lecture will present fascinating stories, beautiful photos, and some of the research being conducted using fungi to solve many of our planet’s woes right now. Fungi CAN save the planet! Discover the crazy, wonderful life that goes on all around us, mostly hidden in plain sight.

For general audiences, no knowledge of mycology is required, and all levels of mycological questions are encouraged for the Q&A. Included in GA ticket cost.

Step off the supplement aisle and into the forest. 👇In this story-rich exploration, Hamilton Pevec—filmmaker, forager, and president of the Western Colorado Mycological Association—shifts our gaze from the supermarket shelf back to the forest floor, where Colorado’s native mushrooms offer a potent, often-overlooked pharmacopeia.

While the big names like Reishi and Lion’s Mane get all the glory, what about Boletus rubriceps, Phellinus tremulae, or Ganoderma applanatum? What makes a mushroom medicinal? What compounds give them their healing power? And how can we build a deeper relationship with our local fungal allies? 🤓

In this talk, you’ll learn the science and soul behind the functional fungi of our mountain ecosystems. Hamilton brings you a heartfelt and knowledge-rich crash course in Colorado’s medicinal mushrooms—wild, accessible, and ready to be rediscovered.
