3 Gifts For Casual Climate Change Preppers
Sure, climate change might cause crop-threatening droughts and leave us with skyrocketing food prices, but you know what might grow really well in our warming world? Mushrooms!

The indoor kit just requires that growers mist the mushroom twice a day to get full-fledged mushrooms in as little as 10 days. All soil included is made of recycled coffee grounds.
