    Thanks J.C. for your welcome - my first.  I have a lot to learn about mushrooms but am aware of some of their amazing qualities.  I have a general science background with no particular specialty interests.  That means I am interested in everything as they form elements of the web of life.  But as I look at the forest I stop by and size up the trees in their individual characteristics and varieties mindful of the ecological interconnections.  That applies to mushrooms and people too.  Hope to get to know you better in the future.

    Hi JC!  See 'Healing Toxic Soils” - ie aminopyralid contamination discussion on Earth Gardens group -http://transitionwhatcom.ning.com/group/organic/forum/topics/healin...

    Most of compliled info from myself, Walter, you, & others is on this EarthGarden group discussion....But not the most recent stuff you have posted in your Aminopyralid group that you may end.   Take a look at EarthGarden discussion, and compare to your Aminopyralid group, to see where I have some info gaps....Or maybe consider writing a blog and preserving your group info there.

    Two other discussion links you might review to see if we have some gaps in info & resources are at:

    “Compost & animal poo' - http://transitionwhatcom.ning.com/group/organic/forum/topics/compos...

    “Nourishment...& Fertilizers”- http://transitionwhatcom.ning.com/group/organic/forum/topics/nouris...

    I hope you'll consider attending the October permaculture convergence in park near Port Townsend! http://transitionwhatcom.ning.com/events/northwest-permaculture-con... Its a great time to come together as a human tribe for camping & sharing info & resoureces.  Thanks for all you do!
