As 'unlearned' as I am about mushrooms (only a consumer of mushrooms in my entire, almost octogenarian life), your articles have opened my eyes to the exciting and varied uses of fungi. And yes, I see the possibly huge worldwide mushrooming potential of fungi! But I, for one, would need a step-by-step guide to exploring fungi! My personal area of exploration would be in the medicinal use and benefits of these amazing fungi. Tell Me More!
Thank you Linda! Welcome into the world of mushrooming potential! Fungi have many medicinal, adaptogenic or functional uses and benefits. I'm no expert (but definitely an enthusiast)... there are some great books on the subject if you're interested in learning from the experts. For example, 'The Fungal Pharmacy' by Robert Rogers is a great guide to medicinal mushrooms and lichens of North America, many of which you'll find in South Africa as well. Locally, check out the work and products of Aether Apothecary https://aetherapothecary.com/ - their blog ('wisdom well') is a treasure trove of info, and lots about local SA mushrooms, plants and fynbos x
