Mushroom Growing Workshop this Saturday July 26 11AM

Join Fungi Ally for a hands on workshop to learn the basics of growing gourmet and edible mushrooms in your backyard! We will cover the basic mushroom lifecycle and talk about some common edible and medicinal mushrooms. We will discuss and implement three techniques you can use to grow a variety of mushrooms.

Growing mushrooms in woodchip beds, logs, stumps, and totems will be demonstrated and participants will get the opportunity to DO them! Participants will leave with the skills and knowledge to encorporate mushrooms into their gardens and landscapes! After the workshop everyone will have a better understanding of how and why to Ally with the Fungi!!
