Fantastic community... still learning/adjusting to platform
I am so happy that LOM has found a new home on Skool after the main site was taken down by FB. While the new platform has a fraction of the people compared to the original group, it's fantastic that most of the people who truly built that platform and made it so cool (Myco Mommas, Jennifer M, Christine F and Squiggledoo) are still super active on the new platform. It's allowed me to "come out of the closet" and more actively participate without fear. I have a few things colonizing but no active grows so have been a bit quieter, but will contribute more over time. The platform itself is decent though I find hard to follow/keep up with (I'm always starting with refiltering so that newest is showing first) but it's a bit harder to keep track of posts and comments than it was on FB. All that said, I hugely appreciate the time and effort the mods have put into building the community, I love the lab videos from MycoMommas, and I'm looking forward to using the grow guides more as I evolve my techniques. BTW, putting in a year + for membership as I'm including FB time. I joined Skool as soon as it was an option but no longer remember how many months.

Saves ~3 hours per week vs. going solo
That's 13.0 hrs per month — worth about $650 of your time
Ladies of Mycology is free to join. At 3 hours per week, you're investing about 13.0 hrs per month of your time (worth roughly $650 at your rate). Compared to searching for the same answers on your own (6 hrs/wk), the community saves you about 3 hours each week by putting everything in one place.
We recognize that mycology is very male dominated, so this group was created to allow women a safe space to discuss mycology. From foraging, to cultivation right up to how to use a microscope to check out spores.
This community was started by Suzie and Missy originally on FB. It was started as a safe space for women to learn how to grow mushrooms for their mental and physical health. Though they had to pivot to their own in person businesses, we will be eternally grateful for starting what has grown to be an amazing community. After being zucked from FB, We have a team of incredible Admins and Mods who are making it their mission to rebuild the LoM family back up on the skool platform and make it better than ever.
