Maybe you enjoy growing a garden at home. Maybe you also enjoy seeing the diverse and interesting fungi that grow in nature. Did you know you can combine those interests?
Rich Leep, a longtime MSU educator and mushroom-growing enthusiast, will lead this interactive workshop, covering some basic mushroom biology before getting started on specifics of growing, caring for, and harvesting mushrooms. Come see what it takes to grow your own gourmet mushrooms at home through a drilling, inoculation, and site waxing demonstration.
Bring the whole family! Our education team will have programming for children, too. Registration is appreciated. There is no cost for this event.
