Who among us doesn’t like a little fungus? I mean yes, there are definitely reasons to not vibe with certain fungi, but a good ole’ plump mushroom isn’t one of them! So if you’re a fairy living in a toadstool, a fearless forest forager, an adventurous shroomie pioneer, or you just crave that umami life, then this cowl is for you!
