Author Biography

Kristen and Trent Blizzard are self-proclaimed "mushroom geeks" and are the creators behind the blog modern-forager.com. They've been trekking the Rocky Mountains and beyond mostly with mushrooms in mind for nearly a decade. At first a hobby, the hunt for fungi quickly became nothing short of an obsession for these two. They have built a lifestyle around foraging--everywhere they go provides a new opportunity to learn about local mycology, and they are both certified wild mushroom identification experts in Colorado, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. They reside in Glenwood Springs, Colorado.
