There is a hidden world beneath the earth and hidden within the wood, full of magic and mystery! There lies the consciousness of nature and the connection of all living things. They are the past, the present, and the future. They nurture and transform life. They can nourish you, heal you, and kill you. They are within us, on us, and around us. They are neither animal nor plant. Since humans have existed, our lives and our development have been closely intertwined with them. They offer solutions to almost all our problems.
Welcome to the kingdom of mushrooms!

We invite you to discover and explore this hidden kingdom with us and learn how you can collect, cultivate, process and use mushrooms yourself.
