SUMMARY:”Discovering Psilocybe azurescens” with Paxton Hoag
DESCRIPTION:In the mid 1970s Paxton Hoag was living next to 115 acres of bo
 ttom land cow pasture in Astoria\, Oregon and took up picking Psilocybe s
 emilanceata. In 1975 his family went to the First International Conference
  on Psilocybin Mushrooms where he met many of the early principals of Psil
 ocybin research. In the fall of 1977 Paxton ran across an unknown Psilocyb
 e mushroom on the shores of Astoria Oregon. The story of getting a name fo
 r a mushroom is quite interesting\, especially if that mushroom is Psiloc
 ybe azurescens. This is that story\; plus of course a few side stories.\nA
 bout the Speaker\nPaxon Hoag grew up outside of Astoria Oregon in a small 
 community named Fernhill. His father was in the US Navy\, and was transfer
 red to Astoria in 1954 and retired in 1958. Encouraged by his parents\, Pa
 xton was fascinated by mushrooms at an early age. He loved exploring all o
 f the mushrooms that grew in his neighborhood\; and read everything he cou
 ld find in the library about fungi. He attended Oregon State University\, 
 but is mostly self taught. He dabbled in agar culture and lab work and fin
 ally ended up with outdoor cultivation of Psilocybe azurescens.\nMeeting
