Eagle's Eye: Not so lovely fair trade

To get the organic certification, I needed a letter from the forest department simply stating that I was not contravening any state law. Actually, my control parameters were more strict than the department's. After travelling in Himachal Pradesh to visit friends, I had an idea to export wild mushrooms to the UK. Not really crazy when you consider how much Europeans love their wild mushrooms and how abundantly they grow in Himachal.
