Special Note – Forget the pricing in this article, I am bringing them around today because every option for these bags are on sale now, some marked down a lot.  If you need to stock up do it now, this is another place tariffs may so jack up costs on a staple for preppers.

Today we’re diving into the underground world of fungi with Olga from Mushroom Mountain.

These days, she runs Mushroom Mountain, a powerhouse operation producing spawn for edible and medicinal varieties, plus mushroom extracts and honeys under the Mycomatrix label.

She had done an amazing job transforming her backyard into a productive, beautiful space. But when it came to the front yard? That’s where the “Karens” and the HOA enforcers drew the line. Nicole pointed out to me, “You haven’t covered that in a while.” She’s right, it’s time to revisit how to stick it to the rule-makers while still playing the game better than they do. Today, … Continue reading →
