Contest Prize of the Day is from Birch Boys Chaga Coffee and Tea.
Chaga is a parasitic mushroom that draws the life out of birch trees. Over time, it stores the trees' beneficial minerals and compounds into a super-concentrated conk that bursts out of the tree trunk. Due to its life cycle, chaga contains more antioxidants than ANY substance on Earth! I love this coffee and tea and had it shipped to me while traveling. The team behind the product is wonderful as well and their vision to make Chaga a household name is a powerful one. Check out their products at https://PassportJoy.com/Coffee
