SUMMARY:Grow Your Own Mushrooms Workshop! [OFFSITE]
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! \nWorkshops will be outside- rain or shine\, and will be a combination of theory and hands-on practice. Please wear comfortable shoes for walking and bring your own water. Whether you have a little patch of backyard or a huge property to work with\, the principles you learn in this class will help make your land more diverse\, productive\, and ecologically friendly than ever before. \nMichael Judd has worked with agro-ecological and whole-system designs throughout the Americas for over two decades\, focusing on applying permaculture and ecological design. His projects increase local food security and community health in both tropical and temperate growing regions. He is the founder of Ecologia Edible & Ecological Landscape Design\, Project Bona Fide\, an international nonprofit supporting agro-ecology research\, and co-founder of SilvoCulture\, a Maryland based nonprofit which is helping plant 1 million nut trees in the Mid-Atlantic region. He is also the author of Edible Landscaping with a Permaculture Twist\, and For the Love of PawPaws. \nMichael lives with his family on a permaculture homestead nestled along the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains near Frederick\, Maryland. The Judds’ homestead consists of 25 acres of mixed woodlands\, food forests\, gardens\, and a nursery designed for experimentation and education. \n**Long Creek Nursery Plant pick-ups available after workshop** \n**These workshops sell out fast\, if you would like to be put on a waitlist please email aharmon@commonmarket.coop** \n

SUMMARY:Learn How to Ride Transit! Pizza Party! [FREE]
DESCRIPTION:𝗟𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝗯𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹: We know you’ve been seeing those big green buses driving around The City of Frederick and Frederick County\, Maryland. We get it—we’re not mind-readers. But we do know that people often think “𝙄 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙧𝙞𝙙𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙪𝙨\, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙄’𝙢 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙞𝙙𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙙.” \nWell\, we hear you\, and we’re here to help! We’ll teach you how to read the schedule and how to use Google Transit to plan your trip. Join Transit Services of Frederick County and the Common Market for a quick and informal travel training session. We’ll learn about Google Maps to plan trips and we’ll hop onboard the 60 Connector right outside The Common Market. We’ll ride down to the Transit Center and transfer to the 61 Connector\, returning to the Common Market shortly after. \nWe will start with a Pizza Party and end with a Bus Riding Party! \nPlease RSVP so we’re able to order enough pizza! 🙂

SUMMARY:Harnessing the Sun: A Homeowners Guide to Solar
DESCRIPTION:In this class\, homeowners will learn about the current dependence on “dirty energy” sources like coal and natural gas\, and how transitioning to solar can reduce their carbon footprint. The course will break down electric bill charges to reveal potential savings solar can offer. Homeowners will explore various financing options for solar installation\, including cash purchases\, loans\, and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)\, and learn about available government incentives such as tax credits and rebates. The class will emphasize the importance of selecting reputable solar companies that offer robust warranties and reliable customer support to ensure long-term system performance and protection. \nHomeowners are encouraged to bring a copy of their electric bill. This will be a pressure-free environment where they can learn about solar energy fundamentals without the pressure of home visits or immediate decisions. The goal is to prioritize education and understanding\, allowing participants to explore how solar works at their own pace and ask questions freely. Unbiased information will be provided to equip homeowners with the knowledge needed to make informed choices about solar energy adoption on their own terms.
