Foray Friday 6/14 (cancelled)

We are postponing tomorrow’s foray (Friday, 6/14) because all this lovely moisture we’ve been getting has come to a screeching halt.

We want you to know that we don’t make this decision lightly.

Brian Barzee, James Chelin and Jennifer Bell have been scouting all over southern Colorado this week. The season will continue to be one of the best we’ve seen in a long time—but nothing is popping currently. The mycelium is waiting for its moment…which will be soon.

So pour yourself a glass of wine, read the new Sporeaddict edition, study the Vera book & save some energy for when the next flush begins.
