Live Mycology Oriented Chat Platform
The heart of The Colorado Myco League has been on Discord since 2022. This is the best place to stay informed and even get customized alerts for local events, giveaways, groundbreaking research & news in mycology, getting assistance with mushroom identification & safety, share cultivating techniques, network with experienced mycologists, swap recipes and discuss anything fungi.
Monthly Mycology Meetup Events
Everyone is welcome to join us for learning and/or sharing their unique perspective on mycology. Participants are encouraged to share mushroom themed gifts and network with new and old mycologists alike. Our events calendar is an aggregation of all of the mycology based events that we are aware of in Colorado. Any event hosted by The Colorado Myco League will say so in the description.
Wild Mushroom Foraging & Identification
Starting in the summer of 2024, we plan to organize educational forays into nature to find and identify mushrooms in their natural habitat. Mushroom foraging books specific to Colorado are recommended companions on these trips. We don’t claim to know every mushroom out there by heart but we certainly know the steps needed to get them identified correctly. If we can’t figure it out together, we will help you get them in front of someone who can. These events will mostly be organized in our Discord server and will also be listed on our events page.
Mycology Classes & Workshops
Learn the basics of mycology and cultivation by participating in seminars designed to help you get started on your mycological journey. Classes will be announced in the discord first and then listed on our events page shortly thereafter. Space is limited at these free events and RSVP is required for attendance. Sign up early to guarantee yourself a spot.
Customized Spotify Music Playlist
Thats right we have our own colorado, mycology and mental health themed playlist that is perfectly suited for when you are in the lab or just burning the midnight oil. One moment it will have you contemplating the intricacies of life, another moment it may give you the giggles and another shed a tear… a little something for everyone.
Printable ‘How To’ Guides For Download
We will be publishing our own guides on how to do many things in mycology. For example but not limited to: How to Make Your Own Shelf Stable Tincture at Home, Growing Mushrooms in a Shoebox on a Shoestring Budget, Breeding Mushrooms for Beginners: The Right Way vs the Easy Way. Guides will be released as they are completed.
