Special Talk and Tasting: Wild about Mushrooms
June 23rd Tuesday Night, 6pm-8pm

A fun plant-based evening of mushroom-inspired dishes and live satirical storytelling by local author and mycologist, Larry Millman.

Join us for a unique evening with Larry Millman, a Cambridge-based author, mycologist, and ethnographer whose fascination with the natural world has inspired 21 books. Known for blending humor, observation, and storytelling, Larry will share a collection of satirical tales centered on one of nature's most fascinating subjects: mushrooms.

To complement the evening, Koshari Mama will be serving a special mushroom-inspired menu, creating a one-of-a-kind experience where food and storytelling come together.

Whether you're a mushroom enthusiast, a lover of good stories, or simply curious, this promises to be an unforgettable night.
