Perhaps it may turn out a sang,
Perhaps turn out a sermon.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Mushroom Messiah

You laugh. Well, they laughed at the Three Stooges, too.

It's true, fish-belly white is the new green. Mushrooms can save the world. Yes, we can.

If you're actually interested Cool Tools has a recommendation and more extensive review.

For everyone else you can marvel over the fact that Amazon key phrases include "cardboard spawn", "bag spawn", "stein butts", "stem butts" and "clustered woodlover", and that there is a book on identifying psilocybin mushrooms.

Mushrooms can provide a source of nutrition, break down stumps, revitalize brown fields and clean up toxic waste. Or, in the case of psilocybin, waste the toxic.
