Volunteer
The North Texas Mycological Association is a non-profit organization in which its members volunteer their time without pay. NTMA would not exist without the hard work and dedication of our volunteers. Our group of volunteers are affectionately known as “Team Mycelium”, as the mycelial network develops fungi just as our Team Mycelium helps develop NTMA.
In order to be a volunteer and join Team Mycelium, you will need to be a member of the Association. We currently have many open positions and are grateful to all of our volunteers who will help our North Texas community grow and ultimately reach its full potential as a premier association of passionate mycologists.
