All smiles when you're with your best friend in a hot spring 🫶🏽

When your uncle is also a Fun-guy 😉🤗🍄

My uncle Bruce has always had this amazing mushroom farm, but this was my first time seeing the “dinosaur p**p” in action (compost blocks, but as a kid my family told me it was dinosaur p**p.)

Anyways, I wrote a lot of my college capstone on how beneficial fungi foods & other natural plant medicines can be— & how the drug war negatively impacted research on it all & caused more addiction/racial issues.

When you’ve done research focused on mental health & addiction, you learn just how beneficial many of these little guys, including , can be for your mental & physical health.

I’m grateful to have such cool family, helping the world with access to such a beautiful, valuable species.

The network is the coolest, & it connects us all. If you want to learn more about fungi, what it can do for the world, & a lot of what I talked about here/in my capstone research, check out Fantastic Fungi— it’s finally on Netflix too 🤗 (We cited the same research— the folks who made that documentary, & my college capstone… the documentary/book is just way more engaging than my 15 page, times new Roman, single-spaced paper 😂)
