Description Reishi Berry Syrup Wildcrafted Reishi Berry Syrup is when our fungal elder, reishi, meets our plant elder, elderberry. Locally, organically grown Ganoderma lucidum and wildcrafted Ganoderma oregoense & Ganoderma brownii fruiting bodies and hand-harvested black elderberries straight from my backyard come together in collaboration with cinnamon, fresh ginger, clove, cardamom, and local, raw honey in this wildly wonderful medicine. The immuno-modulating, heart nourishing and strong yang properties of Reishi synergies potently with the immune stimulating and yin energies of elderberry, supported by warming herbs and spices. This is a tinctured syrup, or a syruped tincture… meaning it contains alcohol (the Reishi triple extraction) as well as thick, sweet elderberry syrup. All the components of this medicine were then let to macerate for one full moon cycle. About Symbiiotica Symbiiotica is a dynamic ecosystem of devotional offerings that work to honor the threads of planetary interdependence. All mushroom tinctures are made by Symbiiotica are from wild harvested or locally & organically grown fruiting bodies (aka mushrooms, not mycelium). They are processed using a triple extraction method to bring forth the full spectrum of medicinal constituents from the fungi into the medicine. These rich, abundant, biodiverse, lands of which I live and have the honor to be in relationship with are a product of thousands of years of Indigenous Land Management, ceremony and intentional tending from the original stewards of this land. With acknowledgment that I, and so many non-Indigenous folk benefit and profit from the gifts of stolen lands, my prayer is that through my actions, I may contribute to the repair, protection and restoration of the ecological, social and cultural relationships that promote regeneration and inter-species harmony. 10% of Symbiiotica medicine proceeds will go towards helping to support the Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians current efforts to protect sacred sites located in their ancestral territory; lands that are today known as the Jackson State Demonstration Forest.
