It was 2015 and in a flash I was kicked off Facebook, for reasons I suspect originated with my being on the terrorist-watch-list after starting numerous Food Not Bombs Chapters across New England throughout my anarchistic youth. The constant ding of the notification bells for the newly formed and overactive CMGN was no more. A couple years later for some unknown reason I was let back in through the cornflower blue digital FB doors and like an old ghost entering a familiar hallway I noticed what seemed to be an abundance of new farmers humming along in the infamous CMGN lands. This moment was the first moment I realized mushrooms were about to have a bit of an explosive renaissance. Some of these farmers seemed like strangers yet others were familiar throughout their early Instagram use. Fox Farm and Forage was a familiar one. While James might say it's all Amy, Amy and James Fox were bitten by the mushroom bug and have not looked back since. I first recorded a MycoWizards episode with Amy in early 2021 when everything was far beyond uncertain. The winter was cold and the expansion plans were still there for all of us...just on a bit of an extended hold. While that first podcast recording was never released I knew I had to get Amy's whole story on record eventually: thus this episode and the formation of the East Coast MycoWizards Run of 2023!
