Join me as we walk and talk through Jackson Demonstration State Forest in Mendocino County with Robert Douglas. Robert is a mycologist, biologist and Environmental Specialist with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Prevention. As we walk and discover this magical forest, camping site and destination location for fungi foragers, you can hear the Noyo River, song birds and Robert belting out owl calls!!!!
Keep in mind this podcast was not recorded in the studio, so you will hear all the sounds of the forest, me breathing hard on the hike and me tripping a few times!
Enjoy!!

Join me for a fascinating interview with Dr. David Hibbett, Biology Professor from Clark University who focuses on Evolutionary Mycology.
Dr. Hibbett answers questions we all think about and want to know more about from the Fungal Kingdom. He is so fun and passionate about fungi and after listening to this interview, I hope that you will also become a "mycophile"!!! (lover of fungi)
