The Medicine Objective & Starwoman Apothecary
Join Tegan with The Medicine Objective and Starwoman Apothecary for a hands-on, guided experience where you’ll create your own custom medicinal herb blend to take home and infuse into oil. Together, we’ll explore the properties and uses of several plant allies, with a focus on how they can support the body through everyday care and healing.
You’ll be invited to work intuitively and intentionally, selecting from a curated selection of herbs to craft a blend that resonates with your needs. We’ll cover the basics of oil infusion, including how to prepare, infuse, and store your oil at home.
All herbs and materials will be provided, including a jar of your custom blend to take with you.
This is a space for slowing down, connecting with the plants, and building confidence in your ability to create your own remedies.

Tenth Muse represents the culmination of her lifelong experiences with the olfactory, her keen observations of the intricate relationship between people and plants, and her unwavering desire to foster genuine connections. Scent is not merely an aroma; it is a tangible sacred force that reminds us, inspires us, nurtures us, and grounds us in the present moment. Tenth Muse’s 100% natural fragrances are meticulously crafted using only essential oils (nothing synthetic), including rare and precious tinctures, all of which are personally crafted by Mary Jo herself. Infused with good intentions, gratitude, imagination, and love, each fragrance is a testament to her unwavering commitment to quality and authenticity.
Workshop: Create your own cone incense.
Creating with your own hands gives you an opportunity to intimately engage with the spirit of the plant in a way that is profoundly rewarding by curating connection. Starting with asking for assistance from the spirit of the plant, then whispering your intentions into the blend, grinding, kneading, and shaping the dough, you will learn how to craft a small batch cone incense intended for clearing and purifying your self and space.

Myco Op
My story traces its roots back to the closure of Mississippi Mushrooms in the Upper Harbor industrial area of north Minneapolis. For nearly four years, I honed my skills with the Mississippi Mushrooms production team. However, as the pandemic took hold, the fate of Mississippi Mushrooms was sealed, and I found myself at a crossroads.
Emerging from the lockdown, I ventured into a new chapter at a unique facility in New Hope, Minnesota, known as New Hope Farmacy. Equipped with a 36 ft. retort for bulk pasteurization and twenty environmentally controlled grow rooms, New Hope Farmacy provided an ideal environment for experimentation and innovation. Over the course of several fruitful years with the N.H.F. team, I not only cultivated mushrooms but also my relationships within the community, fostering a culture of learning and growth.
As New Hope Farmacy closed its doors in 2021, I embarked on a new venture with a group called Forest to Fork soon after. This collaboration brought with it a wealth of new technology and opportunities for exploration. Together, we delved into pioneering methods of commercial growing, from designing innovative environmental grow room layouts to developing our own unique bioreactors for our own production. Automation became a key focus, as we sought to streamline labor-intensive aspects of the cultivation and harvesting processes.
After over a year of collaboration with Forest to Fork team, I made the decision to fully devote myself to Myco-Op in May of 2023. This transition marked the culmination of years of experience and dedication to the craft of mushroom cultivation. Throughout my journey, I’ve cherished the relationships built within the cultivation community and the wealth of knowledge gained along the way. I now have been focusing on the research and development of growing specialty fungi, scaling solutions, and the extraction of these mushrooms’ functional compounds.
At Myco-Op, collaboration is not just a philosophy—it’s our essence. We pride ourselves on working closely with some of the most talented cultivators in the United States, fostering a spirit of cooperation and knowledge-sharing. My mission is to make the art of growing mushrooms at home more accessible and enjoyable for enthusiasts of all levels.
Community Fermenters
Community Fermenters: It's Not a Vibe, It's a Culture
A pop-up activation from Healthy Roots Institute
Fermentation isn't a trend. It's a Culture, literally.
At Mycelia Fest, Community Fermenters is a hands-on space for storytelling, knowledge exchange, and fermented mushroom samplings—a chance to taste the deep flavors of living foods, ask the questions you didn't know you had, and leave with something alive.
The session is led by Céleste, a first-generation grower, community healer, and founder of Nopalli Rebelde, her seasonal practice of turning what the land gives into living food and medicine for the community.
A companion to Potlikker: Mushrooms, Soil, and the Practice of Feeding Community. Where Chef Lachelle Cunningham's talk digs into soil, mushrooms, and the traditions of transforming what's overlooked into something sustaining, Community Fermenters puts it in your hands.
Fermentation is ancient, patient, and deeply communal: how our ancestors kept food alive through winter and how cultures traveled oceans in a jar. Community Fermenters is the monthly drop-in gathering of Healthy Roots Institute, founded in 2018 by Chef Lachelle Cunningham with a mission of healing and social justice through food education, culinary arts, and entrepreneurship. We meet monthly at City Food Studio in South Minneapolis to make, taste, and trade living foods — and this is your invitation to the next one.
This practice has always been communal. Come be part of the culture.
