Explore fungi in Cranbourne!

Join Tom May (pictured), Principal Research Scientist with the RBGV and internationally renowned mycologist, for a workshop on Fungi at RBGV Cranbourne on Sunday 24th May at 11am.

Tom has a strong interest in citizen science, including through his long involvement with Fungimap. Tom has co-authored a number of books including Wild Mushrooming and Planet Fungi, the latter launched in October 2025, which will be available on the day at a discount.

The workshop will focus on recording and identifying fungi using iNartualist, with a fungi walk afterwards.

🌞🌿 Dearest Rewilders of Narrm 🌿🌞

SunSpells (20 December, Mycelium Studios) is a small, Summer Solstice gathering devoted to rekindling our relationship with land, story and community. Just before Christmas, the sun reaches its zenith, the longest day declaring the beginning of the hot, dry months to come. The gathering will include ritual, live music, storytelling. This is an invitation to pause with the sun, to reflect on the year just passed and drop into what matters. Let the bob and swell of story wash over us. Let meaning rise from the charred remnants of late-stage capitalism

If you’re someone who feels the call to deepen your devotion to land and the local ecology, to slow down, and gather in a way that feels earth-centred at this crazy time of year, this one is for you.

🌾 What to expect:
• Live performance by Yorta Yorta musician and spoken word poet Allara
• A mythic storytelling circle with Eloise Oxer

• A ceremony with effigy burning

• Metabolise through movement with dance floor vibes by Macaulay Cult King
• A fundraiser for Scott Reef, an ancient coral atoll under threat from new gas drilling — a chance to take collective action for ocean Country
• Space to rest, connect, reflect

🌱 Families welcome
We’ll have a gentle craft + nature-play station held by two lovely young people so parents can drop into the experience with a little more ease.

SunSpells is intentionally intimate: a moment to come back into rhythm with the living world and with each other.

💛 Event: SunSpells, 20 December, Mycelium Studios

Hope to see some of you wild-hearted folk there. 🌞🌿🌀

— with Eloise Oxer and Macaulay Cult King.
