Introducing February's Teachers of the Month
Michael Weese and Mandie Quark
Michael and Mandie's Next Class is February 29 - click here
Certified wild mushroom foragers, and members of the North American Mycological Association, Michael and Mandie have also both been featured guests on several mycology-related podcasts. As a business team, and partners in life, we speak and present on our individual mushroom-related topics of interest, and lead forays together into the wild. Forays are when we take groups of mushroom hunters out into the natural world to discover all the mushrooms within a general area, and then help identify their finds. As a business, Mushroomlife is mainly educational, yet we also offer a line of wild-foraged natural mushroom supplements, in addition to botanical supplements.
