- William Padilla-Brown is a citizen scientist who, at a relatively young age, taught himself the ways of mushroom cultivation in order to change the world. William made waves as the first American to grow cordyceps, a rare orange mushroom that grows from the larvae of insects. William heads a citizen-run research center dedicated to environmental regeneration efforts with the belief that connecting more to the environment will aid humans in its preservation. He advocates growing your own mushrooms as a means for both food and education.

This guy is openly explaining how to grow these rare mushrooms, instead of exploiting it. Really show his character
yk hes the real deal
Teach the world don't con it
He’s doing both lol. He’s amazing.
@@vibrationalliving5521 Please elaborate or are you just a raciest?
yes! he is the ‘johnny appleseed’ of mushrooms for sure. something so pure about that. i attended the last mushroom cultivation workshop he held before he relocated (seems like he moved again though). he spreads knowledge like spores, the way it should be. i remember leaving there with bags of dried reishi, inoculated substrate, and all the knowledge i needed to get started on my own. 💕🤘🏾
could remember several years ago I was diagnosed with ADHD. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here. and mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on this planet i wish people would all realize. they could solve a lot of problems, more than just mental treatments, environmental clean up; the possibilities are endless with fungus.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Greece. Really need!
YES very sure of Dr.raymycology. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today
I hate that psilocybin gets grouped with drugs like cocaine and heroin. Mushrooms are a remedy, not a vice! I went on a microdose treatment for a couple of months and within the first week, every sight of a cigarette got me questioning why I was doing all that to myself. It really works.

This guy is awesome. Love his vibe and he is clearly of great intellect, but also has true organic compassion for the things he is working with.
Did a project on citizen scientists their work is so important to the promotion of agriculture for so many reasons
Respect, cheers
Agree!! I did one as well but it was in regards to avian conservation. People don't realize the power we have to change and help the world!
What is a citizen scientist ?
@@suvrosarkar4419 citizen scientist is term that basically means volunteer monitoring of the environment in a controlled area

It's the first time I came across the term
I LOVE how passionate this man is about mushrooms. Just listening to him talk just warms my heart, honestly! This is awesome.

The man figured out how to take bug zombie mushrooms and cultivate them on rice from watching TH-cam videos in a language he couldn't understand. He is a fucking genius.
No. He's human.
@@ichibanmanekineko I am mushroom
@@RckDtar I'm a bug. Please get off me
Genius would be more of a term used if he came up with the whole concept himself. Instead, he's smart/intelligent/clever because he used someone else's process and put a twist of his own to replicate it and cultivate his own mushrooms.
Right, his ability to apply and adapt is crazy
I'm sure he's cultivated some out of this world magic mushrooms secretly.
word!
@@thenonlawyer3127 ikr!!!!!
Thats what the cortaseps were

You don't need to, if you know where to find them.
William Padilla-Brown you're fantastic! Keep doing what your doing man the world needs more people as inquisitive, passionate, self-starting as you
Love mushrooms and love seeing how passionate he is to making and living his life
The fact that he uses the mushroom to make dumpling fillings shows how much man of a culture he is
In Poland we have dumplings with cabbage and mushrooms as one of daily culinary products sold in groceries.
mushroom fillings are apart of a lot of dumplings recipes in china.
@@vatuesbet8353 in America if you know anything about the world you are “cultured”

@@it_is_what_it_is269 lmao we all know some of the mushrooms this guy grows have other properties that he can't tall about on TH-cam 👀👀👀😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Even tho it's actually nomenclature cuz mushrooms aren't plants
Paul Stamets is likely doing the same
@@TBM_arms There is nothing in the definition of agriculture that excludes fungi. If you're cultivating or farming food crops then it's agriculture.
Inspiring...the future needs more people like you.
never heard of cordyceps being used for health or food! amazing stuff! im such a huge fan of mushrooms in all form. keep spreading the knowledge!
I could hang out with this guy. He seems like he could be a really cool friend to have. I love to be around people that can teach me things.
I agree. But for now if you want to know more about mushrooms look up Learn Your Land here on TH-cam. The guys got a lot of advice for new mushroom hunter. Make sure you know exactly what your picking before eating though
check out mycodext on Instagram. he got some dope stuff. he sells psychedelics products.. shrooms, lsd, dmts. he's a reliable plug.
He would fucking hate you
@@goatpepperherbaltea7895 Why?
hmm but the thing is; would he hang out with you?
this dude is speedrunning Last of Us in real life with that Cordyceps Fungi
Og
Really though. The orange tendril looking one totally looks like upper left / right area of clickers.
Luckily that's genetically impossible since this is Cordyceps militaris, and the species you're talking about is an entirely different genus, Ophiocordyceps unilateralis. Both of these fungi evolved to metabolize hemolymph, the bug equivalent of blood, and physically cannot survive in the human body. Phew, right?
@@aidenw9265 Thanks. Good to know LOL
@@aidenw9265 what if it mutates and starts to feed in human blood by releasing pores carried by the wind through his work wounds/cuts?
Been following this guy for a couple years and it's awesome to see him take off like this. He's really an inspiration to me cause not only is he cultivating a connection to the rhythm of the natural world but also being black there isn't a lot advertisement for people with those factors in my area and watching him helped pull me out of a mental downfall I was in and motivated me to take control of my own life. I hope stories like this speak to other black people of any age to realize we can cultivate the light to help us illuminate the dark when we feel lost.
I've heard so many wonderful things about magic mushrooms but I can't easily get some, Is there any realiable source I can purchase from??
I'm so interested in the experience but am terrified of having a bad trip

I love my mushrooms 🙌 Lions main is great for the body. Healing. Micro dosing for depression and trauma has done so much good for me. So much changes when you take better care of your diet and use mushrooms to heal 💫
I'm just crazy for mushrooms. Living upstate Poland I'm able to eat a wide range of fresh harvested wild mushrooms. I love reading about them as well. They are the most interesting organisms. Our friend here just made me crave for his delicious looking fungi. Awesome story, awesome video, awesome person. Thanks.
Dang William! I remember when you first came on the scene and I was thinking, "This kid's going places" and now you're straight up on Vice!
this is a super nutrient-rich food, in East Asia people eat this regularly, it only cost me 5 USD in hong kong, and its a decent amount for 4 people in a hot pot meal, probably 500g (mushroom are light weight tho)
I grow all kinds of mushrooms. Shiitake maitake lions mane blue pink pearl king oysters reishi wine cap
Psilocybin, LSD, shrooms and ketamine are absolutely life changing substances that have so much potential to help people with mental health issues.
Psychedelics are just an amazing discovery , it's quite fascinating how effective they're for depression and stress disorders . Saved my life

@Toy Campos Is he on Instagram?
This guy taught me how to grow spirulina, he’s pretty awesome and wet from the same state! I follow him and I’m learning so much and want to learn more
Love that Padilla- Brown is discussing soil health being revitalized through mycology (& inequity discussion also bomb). Some vintners in Oregon are having their wine certified through its mycology rich terroir. It's so fascinating! Firs are being inoculated with spores to see if a more drought resistant sapling can grow. This is next level and truth here. Thank you for drawing more attention to the wonderful world of mushrooms. While not discussed I'll add that micro dosing has brought every person I know doing it great relief from anxiety, depression and lack of focus or energy. Better lives. Mushrooms mixed with hair of all things helped clean up oil spills on coastlines in the past. Mushrooms are the godhead and an expression of love. Science has mush to learn about them. We do.
100% 🖤🍄
I appreciate this comment so much! Education about mycology is so important and these discussions need to happen. I'm so glad he mentioned that the resourced to lift yourself above constricting situations are right in front of you most of the time. It's really true and most people with even just a pinch of that knowledge could be making food out of mushrooms grown from wasted paper materials and yard waste. The world is such a fascinating and plentiful place as long as you keep seeking new knowledge and keep an open mind to your perspective and possibilities.
Mushroom is like the bacon of vegetables, just can't get enough of it.
My actual favorite is finding dead trees with Oyster mushrooms. Then you get that and fry in a pan with bacon grease... everyone enjoys it, it is actually tasty because of the bacon flavor.
it ain’t a vegetable tho
@@user-fs1lc2cj5s yes that is true, but so is tomatoes but we categorize it as a vegetable in culinary.
@@brownsuede4413 interesting
Same. I'm pregnant and this time 8 crave mushrooms so bad, that's been my craving, and it's been really hard resisting the urge to forage wild mushrooms though it isn't safe to take that chance while pregnant.
I appreciate any businessman or woman who not only share their knowledge and experience , wholesale, but also discuss how much they or you can make by doing the said business. Not many do so, but I appreciate this guy so much. Thank you
Thanks for sharing how to cook mushroom and growing them.
Dude...I was just watching the Epicurious episode about picking the right mushroom for every occasion and this comes on. Amazing, lol.
Check out SouthWest Mushrooms, he is a similar dude on youtube who shows peeps how to grow these at home
So happy to see William getting this kind of coverage and spreading his message further.

So inspiring and helpful! You are awesome.
I LOVE this.. I’ve been looking from afar at growing mushrooms for as living .. I really want to.. feels a bit overwhelming though as I’m no scientist 😐 but I love cultivating my house plants and it feels like the next step ..
Mushrooms are not actually plants, so cultivating them is very different in many ways (from what I've learned so far)
Depending on where you're from I do suppose it's possible to grow them for a living though
If you don’t know that he is growing mushrooms, the basement would look like a drug lab 😅
I mean it is a drug lab in a sense all those mushies have special compounds in them, there is no difference between this tent and one to make psilocybin mushrooms (trippy ones)
nah his basement looks like home weed farm
This man is inspiring AF.
This is dope, seen this dude in this mushroom forum a couple years ago and now look at him! Bravo
What an awesome guy!
This guy is so chill, I'd wanna be his friend - and you can see his passion and knowledge coming through - good guy!
Wow what an achievement! Self-taught and then teach other people to do the same. He’s passionate yet humble. A cool dude!
This is a great source of knowledge. I hope to be able to grow a few in my house 😀

great video, but the inconsistent framing of William's interview in the forest was annoying. Head cut off one shot and the next there's five inches. There's places to play with viewers expectations in order to maintain interest but I don't think it should be there.
The camera work throughout was awful. Made me nauseous.
The camera work is just fine for this. It reasonably highlights the mushrooms, and there are some beautiful mushroom shots. I subscribed and look forward to learning more. Im not sure if you micro dose but the vibe is kind of present here. It's great for giving up control...
