Join Fork In the Path in Sebastopol on July 13th, 1-5 pm for a fun and educational mushroom cultivation experience.

What You'll Learn
We'll be discussing cultivation techniques for species such as shiitake, turkey tail, lion's mane, psilocybe, reishi and more! We will do a live demo of an outdoor blewit inoculation. We will also guide you through creating your own cultivated oyster kit to take home.
We will cover primary substrates such as straw, woodchips, and logs. Others we can discuss are grass clippings, leaves, compost, and agricultural byproducts. Ryath (who some of you met during our morel programs) will share about Moon Fruit's experiences, challenges, and ecological considerations and how everyone with even minimal outdoor space can cultivate fungi for food, medicine and as more holistic gardeners.
?? What you'll go home with:
-An inoculated container of straw and Oyster mushroom mycelium
- ready to grow into food for you, and knowledge about how to replicate the process again on your own.
-Knowledge and inspiration regarding how to care for fungi on many scales
- in your garden, backyard, porch/deck and/or forest settings.
-Some mushroomy connections with fellow enthusiasts and a refreshed spirit spending many hours forest bathing in dappled light.
