LIST OF COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND EDUCATION GOALS MET IN 2022

  • CTMS formed in 2019, right before the pandemic. Like hyphae in disturbed soil, we thrive with an 800+ and growing, global membership, a recycled mushroom block program that keeps thousands of pounds of organic matter out of the waste stream, AND a roster of fungtastic monthly events and programming.

  • This year CTMS spearheaded Healthy Soil, Healthy Trees, a partnership with Urban Forestry Council and Ecology Action, to conduct community research on mycorrhizal relationships in urban reforestation efforts.

  • CTMS is partnering in a community-wide mycorrhizal study with Balcones Canyonlands Preserve, City of Austin and Travis county. This project will help Central Texas better preserve and increase our biodiversity in flora, funga and fauna.

  • CTMS will continue building the UT Fungarium collection of Fungi for various research and viewing opportunities, as well as continue to facilitate a dense roster of weekly workshops, lectures and community volunteer opportunities.

  • All community outreach and programming is done as a volunteer run organization and thanks to donations from their members.
