For those in the Pacific Northwest, the Washington State University Bee Program (bees.wsu.edu) is bringing Paul Stamets and Louie Schwartzberg to Seattle to provide education and awareness about mycelium, honey bees and solutions to problems that have an impact on our food supply. We will be hosting an event in Seattle on March 29, at the Moore Theatre, featuring cutting edge research and innovative alternative methods for not only helping the honey bee, but people and the planet as well. Both Paul and Louie are well known TEDtalk speakers, as well as experts in their fields. Stamets and the WSU bee lab are looking at mushroom extracts as acaricides and antivirals. All proceeds go to honey bee and pollinator research.
