3/This month's #BookClub features @MerlinSheldrake's 'Entangled Life' - an exploration of the amazing world of fungi, and the role they play in shaping all aspects of our world - "eating rock, making soil, digesting pollutants and nourishing and killing plants" 
4/Merlin's book delves beneath the surface and into the #soil to uncover the fascinating ways that fungi have made and shaped the world as we know it...
5/We couldn't talk about @merlinsheldrake's book without sharing this incredible image too - visit his profile to watch him devouring the incredible oyster #mushrooms that he cultivated within the book itself! 🍄
