retreat will focus on understanding fungi as the Grandmothers of our ecosystems. Silently shaping the soil beneath our feet, fungi are key players in the health of Earth and trajectory of human culture around the globe. Still, we find ourselves in a time where
the study of fungi is considered to be a neglected megascience, their mycelium, a mystery. It is our goal to help modern women connect with the roles and wisdom of our female ancestors who always maintained and shared their visceral understanding of the Fungal
Queendom.<br>

been devoted to mycology since 1999. Her inescapable drive to study Chile’s fungi has led her to travel the country looking for fungal fruit bodies in different environments and ecosystems. She has authored and contributed to many publications on Chilean biodiversity,
including the only book on Chilean fungi that includes pictures of species in their natural habitat.</span><o:p style="color: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; background-color: ;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> </span></o:p></p>
