Brendan Linnane began his journey into the world of fungi with a chance reading of Mycellium Running by Paul Stamets. In the book, he speaks of the importance of fungi as “the grand recyclers of our planet – as the interface organisms between life and death and life again”. Inspired by his writing, he created Foggy Dew Fungi and learned to appreciate fungi as our teachers.

All living creatures are connected, but most connections are invisible to us unless we learn to perceive things in new ways. Perhaps by slowing down and taking time to sit quietly, to look and listen carefully, we can learn from the natural world.
