Hey y'all, I am working on dialing in module 4 for Mushroom 101, it is all about foraging! I will also be posting my awesome call with @Stacey Estabrook. Is anyone here an avid forager?

Hey y'all, I have using lion's mane as a functional mushroom for brain health for years but recently, since growing my own I have been using them as food! And dang, are they tasty! I had our friend @Christopher Keller over this past weekend and so he can attest to their deliciousness. I did a simple method, I put them in the pan dry to release any moisture, and then I fried them up in butter, garlic, salt & pepper. I had some oysters and so I threw them in too! What I got was a simple and delicious way to enjoy them, their meaty texture and flavor profile was top notch. I am looking forward to exploring other recipes, like this one, offered from our friends at North Spore. A lion's mane "fish" sandwich, it actually sounds so good to me, I will let you know how it turns out. Have you worked with lions mane, either taking it as a capsule or tincture for brain function or have you tried cooking with it? I would love to hear about your experience! https://northspore.com/blogs/the-black-trumpet/turnip-vegans-lions-mane-fish-sandwich?_pos=1&_sid=a9c81295b&_ss=r

As we enter this new season, I’d love to engage a bit more with everyone present here. Please feel free to introduce yourselves, tell us where you are from and share what you love about the fungi kingdom.

Hey y'all, I have uploaded the second Q&A session to module 1 in the Mushroom 101 classroom. Emily and I had a lively conversation where I answered some of her questions and explained the mushroom growing process. I showed some agar plates and grain jars that I inoculated about 2 weeks ago to show the growth process as well as how different varietals grow so differently. I am currently working on straw shiitake, lions mane, and king blue oyster. I am sharing this session with the whole community, if you have been interested in becoming a premium member, we would love to have you join us. There is one more Q&A session before Module 2 drops. Please reach out with any questions. Mush love.

Our first Q&A session was last night for Mushroom 101. The replay has been posted in the classroom under module 1. It was a lively conversation and I am sharing some resources here that came up during our talk for your viewing pleasure. https://youtu.be/kdiP8PzDI1Q?si=6JynDjx38ZctQPd5
