This workshop will discuss the theory behind how fungi break down chemical pollutants – including oil and pesticides – extract or bind heavy metals and radiation; filter water; and initiate and support many lifecycles that help regenerate ecosystems. We will talk through some specific case studies including how mushrooms have been used to degrade plastic and oil, and then get hands-on and learn how to begin some small-scale mycoremediation.
Cost: $30
