Show Notes

Walker Sauls, in Reno, NV, is the founder of the nonprofit GreenVibe World and the urban mushroom farm called Biggest Little Mushrooms.  After Walker Sauls completed his Bachelors of Science degree in Environmental Science he founded the nonprofit while living in Oregon.  Later when he moved to Reno, NV he co-founded Biggest Little Mushrooms with his brother and now works as the Head Cultivator. 

 

At Biggest Little Mushrooms they pride themselves in growing high-quality mushrooms with as little impact to the environment as possible.  Their small farm contributes healthy and delicious mushrooms to their local community through a co-op, a CSA, and soon at a stand at the local farmer’s market. 

 

Walker now sits on the board of the nonprofit, Greenvibe World which provides an online environmental education platform as well as organizing local environmental activism events in his area.  

 

Walker has always had a passion for the outdoors and nature, and is on a mission to be part of the multi-faceted solution that will enable humans to live in symbiosis with our beautiful Planet Earth. When he is not growing mushrooms or working for Greenvibe, you can find him on the side of a mountain, with skis on his feet, or a foraging bag on his shoulder!
