Our mission is to strengthen the conservation, research, and study of Fungi in Central Texas

We are a member-supported, volunteer-run group of united Central Texans dedicated to working with fungi. Fungi are foundational species for nearly all terrestrial life on Earth—critical links between the health, stability, and abundance of the soil, plants, and fresh water on which human and animal life depends. The Central Texas Mycological Society is committed to bringing forth the recognition of mycology and the Fungal Kingdom as a beneficial ally in the effort to restore and sustain the resilience of the natural world.
