YOUR MISSION BRIEFING: WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Let’s grow gourmet mushrooms! In this immersive in-person session, you’ll receive the foundational skills to begin your journey as a Spore Corps Cadet. This class is hands-on, high-vibe, and capped at eight participants to keep the experience intimate and interactive. You will learn to:
DECODE THE MYCELIAL NETWORK: Understand the basic science and folk wisdom of fungi—how mycelium communicates, adapts, and thrives as a decentralized system much like our own community.
MASTER BASIC INOCULATION PROTOCOLS: We’ll walk step-by-step through how grain spawn and liquid culture work, equipping you with the tools to successfully cultivate mushrooms at home.
IDENTIFY THE KEY STAGES OF THE FRUITING BODY LIFECYCLE: Learn to recognize healthy colonization, contamination risks, and when your mushrooms are ready to fruit. This is where patience meets soft rebellion.
ENGAGE IN COMMUNITY INTELLIGENCE: Experience how Spore Corps operates as a network of growers, sharing resources, knowledge, and support to ensure collective success.
WHAT YOU’LL TAKE HOME
Every participant will leave with everything they need to begin their first home grow:
1 sterilized grain bag
1 liquid culture syringe
Instructions and guidance covered during the session
A deeper understanding of the fungal world and how you can cultivate it yourself
This workshop is designed so you can begin your journey the same day you attend.
