Fungi grow everywhere!  They cannot make food by themselves so they have to have to get their nutrients from a host.  They grow on lots of different hosts, anywhere that is warm and damp.  Fungi can’t move around so they make spores that are like seeds.  Spores fly away on the breeze or in water, on animals or clothing and find a new place to grow that has everything they need.  If they can’t find one, they just hibernate - they sleep until the right place comes along!
