Wonderfest: The Wonder of Mushrooms

Over 20,000(!) species of mushroom-forming fungi support the health and diversity of multiple ecosystems. Technically, what are mushrooms?

Perhaps most important, how can we use mushrooms to help feed humanity and heal the biosphere?

Our speaker is Dr. Dennis Desjardin, Professor Emeritus of Biology at San Francisco State University
