🕑 Added 2024-02-17 22:19:03 +0000 UTCHey Deep Peeps! Did you miss our mushroom event last month on January 24? We hope you enjoy these behind-the-scenes event photos and an exclusive video of Damon Tighe, one of the experts at the event showing off the mushrooms he foraged and brought in especially for the event.
A big shout out to Deep Look’s host Laura Klivans for doing a great job of moderating, and also to our producer Gabriela Quirós for showing the audience the secret implement, a.k.a. burette, she used to simulate raindrops for our bird's nest fungi episode.
