Fungi Futures: Co-Visioning a Circular Economy // 16th September 2021

Fascinated by Fungi? Keen to learn how they can revolutionise the world or maybe you’re just curious to try some of mushroom refreshments such as mushroom popcorn?!

A collaboration first between Pocket City Farms & MycoReality, join us for a fun after-work event that explores the future of fungi. We’ll kick off with a short Fungi Futures talk, followed by a facilitated group game of future visioning and mushroom refreshments. We’ll also share more information on upcoming mushroom related events and workshops.

It can be turned into everything from fashionable handbags, to packaging, to even bricks. Join the MycoReality team to deep dive into the future of fungi and their role in creating a circular economy.
