Over the past few years, MycoGeeky has grown into a space for curious, thoughtful conversations about fungi, ecology, and our relationship with the natural world. Recently, the platform I was using to accept ongoing support shut down my page — part of a broader pattern affecting independent educators and creators in the mycology space. Rather than move to another third-party platform with the same risks, I’ve chosen to bring support directly onto my own site.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Donations support independent, creator-led work and are not tax-deductible charitable contributions.
Donations support the tools, time, and hands-on learning behind MycoGeeky — including production costs, research, cultivation practice, and the ongoing work required to stay deeply informed. The goal is simple: the more grounded the knowledge, the better the conversations.
Possibly. MycoGeeky isn’t about money or personal gain — He’s rooted in a belief that mycology has the power to change how we understand health, ecology, and healing. The work here is driven by curiosity, integrity, and a desire to make thoughtful, transformative information more accessible.
If you feel aligned with that mission and have skills you’d genuinely like to bring to the table — whether creative, technical, organizational, or research-based — I’m open to hearing from you. The goal is always to deepen the quality of the work, expand its reach, and help more people learn, grow, and be transformed by fungi.
