#95 October 29:  A farming area in Kennett Square, PA is the self-proclaimed Mushroom Capital of the World.  With just 6000 residents, the farms nearby produce 60% of the country’s mushrooms, a $1.2 billion industry… that’s $200 in mushrooms for each of the residents!10/30/2023

 

#96  October 30: We always enjoy the mushrooms around Park’s Peak from the almost microscopic orange ones that crop up in our drive to the deep orange “chicken of the words” that pops up under the same tree each year on our walk.  I would love to see the blue mushroom that only grows in New Zealand.  According to the website, they have no psychedelic properties. 10/30/2023
