Mushrooms around the World

These are mushrooms I have a found all throughout my mycology journey. They are organized by mushroom morphological types or morphology. Mushroom morphology refers to the basic shapes and forms mushrooms take on, “this refers to informal groupings of similar looking mushrooms that are not necessarily related.” - Passport to Kingdom Fungi by Dr. Gordon Walker.

Every decision we make is shaped by a clear sense of purpose. Our journey has been anything but ordinary. Through every step, we've focused on staying true to our values and making space for thoughtful, lasting work.

What began as a passion project has evolved into something more. We’re proud of where we’ve been and even more excited for what’s ahead.
