Product Information

From the bestselling author of 'Teaming with Microbes and Teaming with Nutrients', 'Teaming with Fungi' is the first book to accessibly explain the essential symbiotic relationship between soil-dwelling mycorrhizal fungi and plants.

Learn how the fungi interact with plants, how to grow their own, and how best to employ them in the home garden.
