Paul Stamets on saving the world

June 18th, 2008 | Miscellaneous

One of the highlights of a year on the west coast was my awakening as a mycophile. Only one hunt yielded enough to eat, but I was hooked. I got a shiitake log and some oyster plug spawn from Fungi Perfecti. The mad genius in charge, Paul Stamets, turns out to be almost as great as the fungi themselves. I guess it was only a matter of time until TED found him.

Get the book: Mycelium Running.
