Dani Arthur’s passion for the forest started back when she was a little girl. Her grandpa would take her on plant and mushroom walks deep into the woods. She has a very beloved (new and old) mushroom book collection and loves spending time gaining deeper knowledge about the Fungi Kingdom. Dani has a persistent curiosity about everything she discovers in the woods and this is where she feels most at home.
