Telluride Mushroom Festival
Celebrating All Things Fungi
Since 1981, the Telluride Mushroom Festival has been bringing in the best mycologists to speak on psychedelic research, decriminalization, and how to cultivate your own mushrooms. We are stewards of education that all humans should know about our mycelial friends. We are a family bonded around mushrooms. Come join next years reunion!
