Sampling Agarikon from deep in the old growth forests - 2021

Watch Paul & Dr. Pam Kryskow discover and retrieve a small sample of Agarikon from deep in the old growth forests of the Olympic National Park. Agarikon has many forms and this one was particularly clever in disguising itself from discovery ….at first. Our goal is to collect 100 strains of Agarikon (Fomitopsis officials = Lariciformes officials), conduct full genome sequencing, and test each strain for its potential medicinal properties. This is a lifelong effort. We hope to publish a monograph of our results in a few years. Stay tuned. We share this path together. Respect !
