I'm super excited about some of the mushrooms featured in this episode! All of these incredible fungi were filmed in a lowland forest in late October, right here in Western Washington. Whether you're local here in WA, in neighboring regions of the PNW (Oregon, Northern California, Idaho, BC, Vancouver Island, etc) ... or even overseas, I hope you find this content to be both educational and entertaining.
