Description

Welcome to Cultivating Medicinal Mushrooms. We invite you to join us April 29th from 6pm - 10pm PST out of Wildish Botanicals in Portland, OR for the second part of our immersive mushroom cultivation series. (While this is part 2, you will not be at a loss for having missed the first course). Together we explore the essential practices for cultivating a wide diversity of medicinal and gourmet mushrooms. This community-centered series will provide you with both the skillset and understanding of how to take a live culture and produce mushroom fruiting bodies. With our immersive hands-on grain spawn lab, you will inoculate a given spawn bag with a culture of choice that you may then use in your cultivation practice at home. We have led mushroom cultivation workshops for over 4 years and are excited to share the lessons we've gleaned along the way. Welcome.
