509 Mushrooms interview Jose Prieto-Figueroa

The Garden Thyme Podcast

Hello Listener,
This month, we discuss mushrooms with our friend Jose Prieto-Figueroa of The Bay Mushroom. Jose and his wonderful wife, Bianca, have grown specialty mushrooms for over 10 years. Jose answers some of our mushroom questions, such as: what a fungus is, why we see them in the fall, how he grows them on his farm, and some tips for how to cook them.
We skipped our Native plant, bug, and tip of the month this month, but they will be back next month.
