SUMMARY:Wild about Mushrooms
DESCRIPTION:Grow your own mushrooms! It is easier to grow mushrooms at home than you think. You can grow delicious and nutritious culinary and medicinal mushrooms in your own garden or home (in apartments\, on rooftops and patios\, too!) In the workshop we will cover how to inoculate stumps\, logs\, wood chips\, and burlap sacks while improving your garden ecology. In this interactive class you will learn the types of outdoor mushrooms that we can easily grow in our area\, the conditions required and the tools you will need. The class will also cover the basics of mushroom science\, how fungi functions in nature and how to work with fungi to help restore our local ecologies. The best part is the hands on experience of inoculating a mushroom log that you get to take home! An added bonus this year will be seeing the Judd’s circular straw bale home.
