Neil Thenier started Forager's Kingdom nearly 4 years ago, and has been providing top notch tinctures ever since. Forager's Kingdom was one of my introduction points to the world of mycology, so having him on this episode was a great full circle moment! Neil combines his love of nature with education and accessibility, something I feel all my guests have in common, and he's doing it in a very special way. Check out the website to order your tinctures:
