In person part 2 discussion of Tsing’s Mushroom at the end of the world, June 4
May 26, 2023Herbal First Aid Workshop Saturday June 3, 10am Van Cortland Park
May 27, 2023We are excited to announce our June Book Club reading of Merlin Sheldrake’s Entangled Life! This “gorgeous” “masterpiece” is “ripe with insight and erudition” and will remind you that “fungi are, like the Universe, sublime.” In honor of LGBTQ Pride Month, you can purchase the book here to support your local independent bookseller Bluestockings Bookstore!
This in-person discussion of Entangled Life will be led by Charlie Dibe, a film producer, longtime member of NYMS, and avid mycophile and bibliophile! We recommend reading the entire book but, in the interest of time, we will be focusing on the first three chapters, particularly Chapter 3, “The Intimacy of Strangers.”

BONUS: Attendees will be treated to IMMOREL — special complimentary new sparkling mushroom teas by NYMS member, book club attendee, and myco-tea maven, Charlotte Rogg! You are also very welcome to bring your own beverage or snack.
All are welcome — myco-newbies, generalists and specialists! Come join us Saturday 6/24 (3-5 pm) in a gorgeous setting for an informal and inspiring in-person discussion of a now-classic in the myco-canon. Please email Maya at culture@newyorkmyc.org to RSVP!
