>>837084think of mushies like you do flowers, birds, or minerals. people like them, and a lot of them are rare and don't take to cultivation. there are people out there with every hobby possible, one of them is mushrooming. some people like to eat them, some study them, some take pics and enjoy searching for rare specimens, some find rare edibles that can't be farmed and sell them for big monies, and some people just like to get high.
