Medicinal Mushrooms: A North Country Story Part 2

When we left off in Part 1 with Kaitlin Lawless, she had just finished telling us about Birch Boys Incorporated, her path to the vice presidency, and what it takes to be a sustainable harvester of chaga and other mushrooms here in the North Country. In Part 2, we're going to continue that conversation by getting into the habitat that these mushrooms rely on, what impact the short-term changes in weather are having on that habitat, and what the outlook is for the health of these mushrooms and the longer-term trends of climate, and what Birch Boys Incorporated is doing to help with their harvesting practices to alleviate that pressure.
