We will be hosting a 2-hour workshop via zoom using a mixture of online lecture presentations and hands-on activities. For this course, we will discuss the key items needed to successfully grow mushrooms such as environmental control, substrate mixtures, spawn, and sterility. We will also explore some basics in fungus biology, some of the amazing roles fungi play in the environment, and why the growing interest in mushroom cultivation.
