Jonathan Jensen-Lynch discovered his passion for mycology in the summer of 2015. He dove into it with such intensity that in 2016, he went into business with Vers Forêt, a Témiscamingue company that markets edible forest products. Discovering the world of wild mushrooms is a real treasure hunt where each species encountered arouses wonder. Quickly recognized by his peers, he was invited to give presentations at provincial mycologist gatherings.
