About this Event
Mushrooms can grow on various substrates on tree logs, wood chips, sawdust, straw, leaves, compost, soil or even your jeans! We will have a hands-on experience to make your own oyster mushroom blocks on sawdust. Each attendee will take home the blocks to fruit and enjoy your own fresh mushrooms, along with some ideas on what to do with the “spent” blocks after fruiting.
This program is taught by Noble Mushrooms of Bridgewater.
