Mind Blowing informative and the most motivating seminar I have ever been to. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.Daniela
Darren is a master expert in his field, what makes his workshops great isn’t just his knowledge and experience, but his ability to come from passion and spirit. His engaging expression is clear concise, commanding the room he leaves you wanting more…it also helps that the man’s got jokes too!

Darren Le Baron is coming to Brighton for in-person Shroomshop: Mushroom Cultivation Workshop by the sea this summer!
Come and learn the basics of mushroom cultivation and explore various techniques for growing gourmet and medicinal mushrooms. This will be a hands-on experience and will cover everything you need to know to get you started.
Mushrooms' therapeutic value has been prized in indigenous cultures for thousands of years. In the past few decades, they have become even more popular for their medicinal qualities in the West, as a result of an expanding body of scientific research supporting their numerous health benefits.
You will gain valuable insights into the world of mushrooms and unlock the potential for producing your own food and medicine. You will learn practical knowledge that empowers you to cultivate these remarkable organisms for your well-being.

YOU WILL LEARN:
- What are Mushrooms?
- How do Mushrooms grow?

- How to make your own grain spawn
- How to make a fruiting tub?
- Mushroom Aftercare
- Where to get everything?

Really amazing and helpful course with Darren. He’s a friendly and inspirational guy with a very deep knowledge of all aspects of fungus cultivation culture. If you want to get going on this hobby make him your first choice to learn all the skills and tips to save you time and money. 10/10. Gonna have a go myself now then most likely do his pro course in the coming months.
