The more scientists are learning about fungi and lichen, the more we question the foundations we have built our scientific theories around. Join Lockerly Arboretum director of education and a local mycologist and lichenologist for a weekend diving into the curious world of these holobionts and the symbiotic worlds they create. Our adventure begins Friday evening with a communal dinner and introductory lecture introducing the studies of mycology and lichenology. This will be followed by a full day in the field Saturday getting to know our fungal friends more closely.
