Critics Review

“This book is an enticing invitation into the fungal realm, accessible and a pleasure to read. Author Greg Marley’s enthusiasm is infectious, as he encourages an appreciation of fungi as essential ecological partners, and empowers readers wtih practical tools. These pages are filled with foraging and cultivation tips, scientific explanations, ancient lore, literary references, and entertaining stories, with the mission of transforming mycophobia into mycophilia.” – Sandor Ellis Katz, Author of Wild Fermentation and The Revolution will not be Microwaved
