Louisiana Mushrooms

February 26th @ 5:30 pm. Presentation Starts at 6:00 pm. Chafunkta Brewing Company.

Join us for a presentation on February 26th led by Jordan Gros, Biological Engineer and founder of Mycocentrics—a local company specializing in functional mushrooms.

We’ll be exploring the world of fungi: their vital role in ecosystems, their historical significance, and how they continue to influence our lives today. With a focus on Louisiana’s native mushrooms, this event is designed to help you feel more confident and curious about the fungi in your own backyard!

Together we’ll learn the numerous ways incorporating mushrooms into our lives can support our health on an individual, community, and planetary level. Jordan will also have functional mushroom products for sale!

Big Poppa Eats food truck will be present and serving a mushroom-inspired menu. Come hungry!
