Join us for a hands-on Log Plugging Mushroom Growing Workshop, perfect for beginner growers and fungi enthusiasts alike!
In this event, you'll learn how to grow gourmet mushrooms—like shiitake or oyster, by plugging hardwood logs with mushroom spawn. We'll guide you through the entire process: from selecting the right wood and drilling holes, to inserting spawn plugs and sealing them with wax.
Each participant will plug their own log 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 short 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.
Duration: Approximately 2 hoursIncludes: Instruction, materials, your own mushroom log, and farm tourWhat to Bring: Closed-toe shoes, weather-appropriate clothing, something to eat unless you plan to eat at the Rusty Duck Cafe.
