Farm Yarns: The Future with Fungi

Join us for our first Farm Yarns event, exploring the fascinating ways that locals in our community are working with mycelium to regenerate ecosystems, improve water quality and our health.

Whether you're a grower, nature enthusiast, food lover or simply curious about the wonders of mycelium, this is an opportunity to connect with like-minded community and gain a deeper understanding of the ways in which fungi can continue to support a healthier future.

Ticket sales will go to supporting the next generation of local farmers through the Northern Rivers Farmer Incubator Program.

Some light tea and nibbles will be provided.
