Spring is the peak season for wild mushrooms to break through the ground and for shiitake mushrooms to break through the bark of shiitake mushroom log kits. Sandra Williams of Lost Creek Mushroom farm tells the story of how mushrooms grow.
Shiitake mushrooms are known for their nutritional and medicinal potency. According to ancient lore, they also have spiritual, magical gifts. Lost Creek Mushroom Farm donates a portion of log sales to its humanitarian project, Mushrooms in Ghana.
