Medicinal Mushroom Workshop with Courtney Tyler
Join me for an immersive, full-day Medicinal Mushroom Workshop, where we’ll dive deep into the fascinating and diverse kingdom of fungi. Discover how to incorporate mushrooms into your life as powerful medicinal preparations and delicious food, and why you would want to.
What We’ll Cover:
• Explore 8 Medicinal Mushrooms, in particular those around us locally
Learn about key species, focusing especially on those abundant in Ireland/UK. Examine some dried or fresh samples up close and discover their health benefits, immune-modulating properties, and links to scientific research.
• Medicinal Mushroom Preparations
Learn step-by-step how to make aqueous and alcohol extracts and the benefits of dual or full-spectrum mushroom preparations. We’ll also discuss safe use and potential contraindications.
• Mushrooms as Nutrition
Learn how and why mushrooms offer powerful nutrition and learn some delicious recipes and easy ways to bring mushrooms into your diet and wellness routine. Special preparation consideration for enhancing nutritive value and to safely use and consume wild fungi. I’ll share a couple of recipes incorporating fungi, such as drinks, desserts, jerky, gomasio, etc.
• Sourcing Medicinal Mushrooms
Discover which mushrooms are suitable for foraging and which are easier or more sustainable to cultivate. We’ll share resources for sourcing and selecting high-quality products- or show you why there is almost nothing better than making your own.
