Shroomshop

The Shroomshop: Mushroom Cultivation for Beginners

This workshop will be held online. At this time, more than ever, we need each other. Despite our distance, we can continue to learn, grow and connect together. 

All participants will be given access to course notes for the workshop after the session. You will also be entitled to a Oyster mushroom spore syringe if you live in the UK. We will send instruction how to receive this and the Zoom link to join with the confirmation email.

Mushrooms have been growing wild since prehistoric times. Their therapeutic value has been prized in indigenous cultures, for thousands of years. They play a critical role in medicinal practice and were noted in some of the first books on herbal medicine written thousands of years ago.

In the past few decades, mushrooms have become more popular for their therapeutic qualities in the west as a result of an expanding body of scientific research supporting their numerous health benefits.

Come and learn the basics of mushroom cultivation, explore various techniques for growing gourmet and medicinal mushrooms such as Oyster, Reishi, Shiitake and many other strains of mushrooms.

This will be a hands on experience covering everything you need to know to get you started.
