Benedict Noel of [The Mushroom Guide](https://www.mushroom.guide/) is author of a 9-part guide to growing shiitake mushrooms on our blog (starting [here](http://lowimpactorg.onyx-sites.io/mushroom-guide-why-grow-shiitake-mushrooms/)). He’s been hooked on mushroom growing since watching [this TED talk](https://www.ted.com/talks/paul_stamets_on_6_ways_mushrooms_can_save_the_world) in 2015 and has been building his knowledge and experience ever since. Since starting out, he’s helped run a couple of cultivation courses, given presentations at festivals and grown a wide variety of mushrooms, from oyster and shiitake to pioppino and chestnut.
