Medicinal Mycology
Featuring: Jordan Gros
Tuesday, March 25, 2025, 6:30-8pm

Join us and learn about our local Louisiana medicinal mushroom species!
 
Jordan Gros, a Biological Engineer and owner of Mycocentrics, will share personal insights from working with these mushrooms, helping us better understand their role in planetary, community, and individual well-being.  We’ll learn how to find these mushrooms and properly identify them, understand their properties and applications, and learn what you can do with these mushrooms if you find them in nature. Tapping into this knowledge will leave you with more confidence about how to incorporate these mushrooms into your daily living to support optimum health!
