Bought a house with this glass structure in the backyard, no idea what it’s supposed to be.

Where it’s cool.

Where it’s damp.

Where no one expects anything to happen.

 

And yet — something does.

 

Mushrooms pop up like secrets shared between soil and sky.

 

They remind us that not all food needs to be rushed or bought in plastic wrap.

 

Some of it can grow slowly, mysteriously, and beautifully in our own backyard.

 

So next time you pass a pile of discarded windows or leftover lumber…

 

Don’t throw it away.

 

Build a little house.

Fill it with damp logs.

Invite mushrooms in.

 

Because sometimes, the most rewarding gardens aren’t the ones that bloom.

 

They’re the ones that whisper.

 

And then surprise you with flavor.

It’s quietly making a comeback.

Let’s explore why this charming, low-tech greenhouse deserves its own renaissance — and how it can help us slow down, reconnect with nature, and grow something magical in our own backyards.
