Leigh Martin really likes fungi. No, let me restate that: Leigh Martin loves fungi. And she also happens to be an obsessive knitter. So for her big New Year’s resolution, this nature-loving fiber artist promised to knit a new type of fungi every week and post it on her blog.

From bright green mushrooms to sturdy, tree climbing orange sunburst fungi, this Oklahoma City gall really knows how to display the beauty of her unusual art. Stay tuned for more. She creates and shoots a new series every week, as promised.

Ever wanted to try your hand at growing vegetables but don’t have a big enough yard? Never fear, Fungi Culture is here. Todd Mansfield, self-proclaimed mushroom dude, is behind the Fungi Culture mushroom kits, which allow you to grow up to half a kilo of pearl oyster mushrooms from the comfort of your own living room. The process is pretty simple: you just mist the box of shrooms morning and night until you see those big babies burst. This will take about ten days. Not only do you grow something that is sustainable and healthy, you also get to eat it. Double win!
