Our workshops are perfect for beginner growers and fungi enthusiasts alike!
In this event, you'll learn how to grow gourmet Oyster mushrooms, by making fruiting buckets with mushroom spawn and pasturised straw. We'll guide you through the entire process: from selecting the right substrate, correct field capacitIes and looking after your mushroom bucket until it successfully grows your mushrooms for you to harvest.
Each participant will make up their own bucket to take home, along with detailed instructions for continued care and future harvests. No prior experience is needed - Just bring your curiosity and wear clothes you don't mind getting a little messy!
After the workshop, enjoy a guided tour of our farm, where you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at our sustainable growing practices, seasonal produce, and other mushroom cultivation methods. It's a great opportunity to connect a little closer with nature, ask questions, and see where your food begins.
