Wild Edible World: A Foraging Podcast Wild Edible World

Mike Snyder is a passionate mushroomer in Missouri with his wife, Cara, and daughter!

We were psyched to have him on the show- Michael met Mike at the Flyway Fungi Festival in 2023 and they connected on sheer love of nature and passion for sharing. We delve deep into Snyder's origin story and how he feels called to educate folks on mushrooms.

Mike teaches log innoculation classes and has his own product line with nourishing body butters and balms for whatever ails ya! Check out everything they do at @wildwisebotanicals !!

In this loose and silly episode, Steve and Michael discuss their gratitude for the past two years of the show and set out some goals and plans for what they'd like to see in the future for the show! This episode has almost nothing to do with foraging but we wanted to take a moment to feel so lucky to be able to make this show where we get to meet and work with so many awesome and talented folks. Love you guys! here's to two more years!!!

Ben (@4plexdining) is a chef in Missouri that overcame the difficulties during the pandemic by wielding foraged ingredients to create a a baked good/fermented beverage pop-up out of his kitchen. Most recently he helped start and lead Temperence Kitchen, a dining experience whose proceeds are forwarded to "Ben's Friends" an awesome organization that offers support to members of the food and beverage industry that struggle with substance abuse or addiction.

Ben is such an inspiration and we hope you find his message as hopeful and encouraging as we do! Check out the new episode on all streaming services (yes ALL) and give Ben a follow!
