As the winter solstice approaches, I thought it might be fun to do a gift exchange with other mycophiles. In honor of the influence Amanita muscaria had on holiday lore 🍄❤ Would anyone in this group be interested?
The exchange is run on a site which will virtually draw the names once everyone has signed up. Feel free to share this to other mushroom and mycology friends and groups. Since it is a themed exchange, familiarity isn't required since the mycelium unites us! The only requirement is to send a mycological related gift to your person by the deadline. It will be fun to see what magic is manifested :)
Mush'love,
