WHO ARE WE?

OUR MISSION

The Colorado Myco League is a public charity (501c3), and our mission is to actively educate the public on the countless ways fungi can support physical and mental health, with the intent of advancing the science of mycology. Also provide charitable access to mycology workshops, cultivating supplies, nutraceuticals and/or personal development programs in an effort to provide relief to the poor, the distressed and the underpriviledged.
