Delved deep into the world of Agarikon, Turkey Tail, Lion’s Mane, psilocybin mushrooms, and the incredible benefits mushrooms offer for immunity on the latest #thejoeroganexperience episode. Thanks for having me back, Joe Rogan! Check it out: open.spotify.com/episode/0UdRuL…

Against all odds, we got to experience the solar eclipse today in Austin, TX. Who else tuned into this celestial spectacle? ☀️

🚨 Attention myconauts! 🚨

There is a tornado and hail warning.

Stay safe!

Check out this amazing Ghost Fungus, a bioluminescent mushroom that emits a greenish light at night, from Catherine Marciniak - Planet Fungi. What a fantastic find!

This Saturday, I will be heading to the Texas Eclipse 2024 festival to witness the rare total solar eclipse of 2024! I’ll be joining the lineup of 100+ artists and speakers to give a talk about all things mushrooms and mycelium. Get your tickets: seetexaseclipse.com

A very cool close up of the frosty bonnet, an incredibly tiny mushroom! The frosty bonnet gets its name from their small white caps, typically ranging from 0.25 to 0.75 cm, that appear to be dusted with sugar-like granules. Thanks for sharing Allthingsfungi!

I'm proud to have been quoted in Sara Savory’s upcoming book Never Lose Sight of Your Elephant. Her book rethinks education and our role in nature's ecosystems. We are all interconnected, and we must remember that if we are to continue to evolve. Check it out on April 15th!

As morel season is around the corner… here is a look back at our bed of cultivated (and very cool!!) morels over at Fungi Perfecti. Remember- it's important to always cook your morels before you consume them! #tbt

Public Service Announcement:

All-

Make sure you thoroughly cook your mushrooms! In this case (likely undercooked) cultivated morels from China caused severe illnesses and a few fatalities.

Nature appreciation post ✌🏻Go out and get some fresh air today!

An incredible time lapse of slime mold plasmodium pulsing or ‘breathing’ driven by cytoplasmic streaming. Slime molds run on a ‘network intelligence’ to coordinate their senses across the plasmodium. How cool! Thanks, Dr. Gordon Walker for sharing this video!

Attention myconauts! Applications are open for the 2024-2025 Certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research at California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS)! Professionals can apply until April 22 and scholarships are available. See details: ciis.edu/research-cente…

An incredible find, Sadie (@/shine_photograph__ on IG) !

How cool is this Earthstar mushroom found at the Redwood N&S Parks! Earthstar mushrooms or 'stomach fungi' are related to the puffball mushroom and have fruiting bodies which are stomach-shaped sacs filled with dry spores. Thanks, National Park Service for sharing this beauty!

Look at these glorious chicken of the woods! Anyone else ready for foraging season? 🙋🏼‍♂️ #tbt
