Luke Sarrantonio grew up in Rosendale, New York, exploring the local landscape and its unique ecology. He truly discovered Fungi while studying at SUNY ESF and immediately fell in love! He has since developed a dynamic career based around this passion for Fungi. Luke’s work includes educational programming focused on ecological understanding and cultivation, facilitating community projects (Eat More Mushrooms Project), and creating a line of functional mushroom products (under the name Mycophilic). He also consults for outdoor mushroom farms, and manages his own in Accord, NY. Luke’s main goal is to be an accessible resource for people who want to learn more about this fascinating group of life.
