In October, I had the privilege of hosting an extraordinary event in Berlin, a collaboration between Funga, the culinary artistry of Dosch, and the creative vision of A Fair. The evening was titled “The Rise of Psychedelics: Unpacking Societal Changes and Scientific Breakthroughs,” and it was a true celebration of the magic of mushrooms, the potential of psychedelic therapy, and the exciting societal shifts these innovations bring.

Dosch, led by the incredible @dosch.berlin, curated a stunning culinary journey that showcased the versatility and functional benefits of mushrooms in each thoughtfully crafted dish. Every plate carried not just flavors but also a story—one that wove together nourishment, nature, and the transformative potential of fungi.

 

 

Our discussion centered on the evolving role of psychedelics in today’s world, a deep dive into neurological discoveries, shifts in public perception, and their profound potential in mental health treatment. Most memorably, we looked at the interplay between tradition and modernity, discussing the wisdom of ancient cultures that first embraced these substances and how they are finding their way into contemporary therapeutic practices.

 

 

This event wouldn’t have been possible without the collaborative energy and creativity of @le.tizi and @carolini_n, who conceptualized and executed an evening that was as inspiring as it was immersive. I’m deeply grateful for their hard work in making the night as special as it was, bringing people together to share in these meaningful conversations.

One of the most fulfilling parts of the event was connecting with like-minded individuals across Europe who are curious and passionate about the topics we explore at Funga. It was also an exciting moment to give attendees a first glimpse of a product we’ve been tirelessly working on—one that embodies the core values of what we stand for at Funga: exploration, healing, and reconnection with nature.

 

 

This evening in Berlin was not just an event but a bridge—linking art, science, and the culinary world to the transformative potential of psychedelics and functional mushrooms. It was a testament to the power of collaboration and a beautiful reminder of the interconnectedness that mushrooms teach us.

Here’s to more conversations, more connection, and more transformative evenings like this one.
