SUMMARY:November 20 Speaker Series - Mike Dechter
DESCRIPTION:Keep Sedona Beautiful will hold its next Preserving the Wonder Speaker Series event on Wednesday\, November 20 at 5:00 pm. \nThe event will be held at Keep Sedona Beautiful\, 360 Brewer Road in Sedona\, starting at 5:00. Doors for this free public event open at 4:30. \nMike’s talk will illustrate how the Southwestern region is a landscape inherently shaped by Native American groups that in turn has shaped the cultures and traditions of those who have lived here. One of the crucial strategies employed by civilizations in the arid and highly variable environments of the southwestern United States has been an extensive and specialized use of available resources. This knowledge has been extremely well documented in hundreds of ethnobotanical studies\, historical accounts and scientific investigations. Paradoxically\, very little is known about the relationship between southwestern Native American groups and fungi that grow in the region. While this suggests ancestral Native Americans may have represented a “mycophobic” culture\, recent evidence shows ancestral Native American groups of the southwest understood the nuances of local fungi and cleverly used edible fungi to support health and nutritional needs. \nMike Dechter works for the Coconino National Forest and spends his spare time wandering the woods to find and learn more about native fungi. He has been a leader with the Arizona Mushroom Society over the past decade and frequently teaches classes on fermentation and wild foods in northern Arizona. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
