Mushroom Cultivation Workshop

Join us for a hands-on workshop on growing edible mushrooms on logs!  Mushroom logs (called bolts) are a great way to utilize wood from your property to produce healthy and nutritious food. This outdoor workshop will help you gain a better understanding of mushrooms, their importance to the ecosystem, and their many uses. Participants will go through each step of the process of inoculating a mushroom log for outdoor cultivation. You will learn what types of wood are best for growing different species of mushrooms, where you can source your own mushroom spawn, and how to take care of your log to ensure bountiful harvests. Each participant will go home with their own inoculated shiitake mushroom log, which will produce mushrooms several times a year for years to come! This is a beginner course - no skills are required, and all materials are provided.

This workshop is FREE for registered Eco Camp guests! To learn more and reserve your weekend stay, visit the Eco Camp section of our website.
