It is more important than ever to work towards having a resilient food system and be producing fresh food at home. This course will go over what mushrooms are, ways in which mushrooms are cultivated, medicinal properties of certain mushrooms, and how we can relate to them to provide benefit for us, our community, and the land we grow on. No special lab experience required as we will go over various techniques learning how to cultivate and grow mushrooms without any special equipment.
Class includes an optional farm to table lunch after the class.
