Shiitake Mushroom Class

Learn how to grow your own shiitake mushrooms. Participants learn about mushroom growth, selection of spawn, and proper care of shiitake logs. Each participant will take home one 4-foot log, which he/she will inoculate during the workshop. Each log should be able to produce shiitake mushrooms several times a year for 2-3 years or until the log has decomposed. Cost is $55. Class space is limited.
