North Spore teams up with TikTok influencer, mushroom ASMR enthusiast, and PhD Biochemist and Molecular Biologist Dr. Gordon Walker (aka Fascinated by Fungi) for a visually stunning mushroom foray off the coast of Maine. We find slime mold, chicken of the woods, veiled oyster, and red-belted conk along with many other life forms. The video covers mushroom hunting accessories, mushroom photography tech, basic fungi biology and harvesting along with the importance of mushrooms in the natural environment!
