I've been on this mushroom hunting kick, empty of meaningful break from the ongoing stress-o-life and work, I'd thought it would be great to get back to basics, back to what I once remembered enjoying, "hunting" for mushrooms. It started out as a class course requirement and lead to a whole lot of cheese consumption. I've never been overly neurotic about mushrooms…however, if you happen to be in my circle of friends…I might come off as one… But before you run into your little cuddly corner of familiar comfort, consider this, can mushrooms help safe guard what you presently enjoy? Yes they can! Mushrooms are scarcely on common grounds as gardening discussions at a dinner table unless it’s your obsession, so just say that if we understood them more, we may delightfully muse about them. Okay for some that's asking much.
However, put aside your misconception and superstitions of them and accept that they...these fungi have a vital role in helping us with our gardening and growing food. They help our plants access otherwise inaccessible or difficult to access nutrients. In time, you will come to appreciate the beauties of these decomposers. Here in lies not an advocate for harmful mushrooms but their benefits in good stewardship.
