A one day outdoor hands-on workshop on how to create a successful culinary mushroom garden in your outdoor gardens. Mushrooms and thier fungal network are an intricate part of successful compost and garden soil health. In this workshop using mushroom (seeding) spawn you will learn to create the best growing conditions for two outstanding culinary mushrooms, Wine Cap (garden giant) that recurs year after year, and Almond Agaricus, an aromatic and almond flavored mushroom that prefers warm soil and acts as a great companion planting. Discover the best growing practices using growing meduims of straw, woodchips and composted manure and how to process and source the growing mediums for best results. In as little as 3 months, harvest and enjoy the delicious fruits of your labor. No garden? No problem! We'll also learn to gorw these mushrooms in bucket gardens. Each participant will bring home a sample of inoculating spawn for at home use and growing. Instructor: Sally Rossi Ormon. Rain date 5/17.Saturday, May 16th. 9:00am - 12:00pm.
