In a rondeau, heat the butter over medium heat until melted and lightly bubbling. Add onion and sauté over medium-low heat for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until the onion is soft and translucent.
Increase the heat to high. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for another 5 minutes or until mushrooms have released moisture and softened, Add garlic and fresh thyme and sauté for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add the farro and toast over medium-high heat for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring continuously.

Reduce the heat to a steady simmer, cover, and cook for 45-50 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so, until the farro is tender and the risotto is thick. Season with salt and pepper.
