A TREATISE ON SEEING & WORKING WITH FUNGI

Mycologists walk a fine and often a curving line between Herbal Medicine, Artisan Cuisine, Master Gardener, and Scientist. While fungi infiltrate nearly every aspect of our lives, they’re often hard to classify and often overlooked. Today, we’re talking with Peter McCoy, co-founder of Radical Mycology and author of Radical Mycology: A Treatise on Seeing and Working with Fungi about the world of Mycology.
