SUMMARY:Fungal Culture and Media Production Demystified: Part One of a Series on Mushroom Cultivation
DESCRIPTION:Discover the basics of fungal tissue culture and nutrient-media. In this workshop you will get hands-on experience learning how to culture mushrooms\, make various types of culturing media\, and ways to expand or maintain isolated cultures. Other topics will be covered\, such as materials and supplies needed to get started\, how to follow proper aseptic technique\, how to make spore prints and ways to view fungi under a microscope. \nParticipants will get to take home their very own fungal cultures and all the information needed to replicate what they learn on their own. \nPlease bring a mask to wear for the hands-on part of the workshop. \nThere will also be the opportunity to make your own Still-Air-Box if you bring you own clear sterilite tote (preferably 90 quart size or larger). This is the first of two workshops covering the basics of personal mushroom cultivation. \nAttendance to both is recommended\, but not required. \nIf you are interested in learning how to grow your own mushrooms or conduct your own fungal science projects\, these workshops are for you. \n**Scholarship Information**\nThese workshops will cost $65 each. To provide an equitable experience within our community\, we will be awarding (5) scholarships to community members who self identify as members of historically underserved and marginalized communities. Scholarships will be awarded via email on August 5th\, 2024.\nPlease apply for scholarships here. \nAubrey Inkster is a mycologist/community scientist specializing in mushroom cultivation. In the past he has worked in research laboratories focusing on urban forestry and environmental engineering at the University of Delaware\, and most recently spent a year working as a laboratory technician in an industrial-scale spawn lab in Kennett Square\, PA. His current interest is in learning how to extract and sequence DNA from mushrooms that he has cultured from the wild in order to contribute to the greater understanding of fungal biodiversity around us.

SUMMARY:WMS Tri-County Foray (Northern Wisconsin)
DESCRIPTION:Join Wisconsin Mycological Society for one of the largest fungi forays in the Midwest! \nAt this very family-friendly event you will learn find experts in mycology\, foraging and a focus on wild foods! At the foray there will be: \n\nA VIP Plant Hike with Sam Thayer you can sign up for (at a small extra fee). Sam will take the group into the wilderness for about 2 hours to discuss wild plants that you can find all around you. You never know where you are going to end up when Sam gets going. He might end up jumping into a marsh with the cattails and show you how to find wapato\, or he might even go to the edge of a lawn to show you what lies there waiting to be discovered\, but no matter WHAT it will be an adventure!\nWorkshop with Linda Black Elk. Linda is going to be teaching us about elixirs and salves and guiding us in her knowledge of using plants for medicinal purposes. We are grateful to have her expertise at this event and cannot wait to create incredible concoctions with her!\nWild Foods Cooking Demo with Chris Gavin. He will lead us through a cooking demonstration that tells us about his favorite wild foods. Chris is an avid outdoorsman and forager\, and he creates the most incredible meals that were gathered and hunted by his own hands. At the end\, we will get to taste them! Last year we were lucky enough to even get to take some of them home!\nWild Foods pot luck lunch and try some of the most amazing wild foods from your fellow foray attendees!\n\nWhile you are welcome to make your own accommodations\, tickets INCLUDE A CAMP SITE at our booked campground Eagle Point and RV sites are available\, but fill up fast (that will be shared among our group). We have a large group of sites booked this year on the scenic upper camp site\, and tents can nestle in as well with plenty of room! \nWhat else do we offer? \n\nFungi-fabulous forays led by Wisconsin’s foremost experts\nTables of collected fungi to be identified and examined\nTwo mycological lectures\nTwo catered sit-down dinners by the Hilltop Resort included\nKids’ activities focused on nature and fungi including learning support and recognition for junior mycologists\nA UV Night Hike to look at UV-fluorescent fungi (including lichen!)\nGreat conversation with long-time mycology enthusiasts and new learners alike\n\nTicket prices for Tri-County Foray 2024\nFor adults (18+)\n– Thurs. to Sunday – $ 150\n– Friday day pass – $ 80\n– Saturday day pass – $ 80 \nFor children ages 12 to 17\n– Thurs to Sunday – $ 50\n– Friday day pass – $ 30\n– Saturday day pass – $ 30 \nFor children under the age of 12\nThese attendees still need to register separately\, but there is no cost! \nREGISTER HERE NOW!\nhttps://www.wisconsinmycologicalsociety.org/tricountyforay.html
