Grow Your Own Mushrooms: Workshop with Blake from Em Oh Gi Fungi Embassy - May 31
When: Saturday May 31 | 1pm-2:15pm
Where: Ottawa Farm Fresh | 2811 Ramsayville Rd.
Cost: $45 per person - Includes Mushroom Growing Kit
Join Blake, the passionate mushroom farmer behind Em Oh Gi Fungi Embassy, for an immersive hands-on workshop that dives deep into the magical world of mushrooms. Whether you’re a fungi fanatic or just curious about growing your own gourmet mushrooms at home, this workshop is the perfect place to start.
🌱 What You’ll Learn:
- An introduction to mushroom ecology and the vital role fungi play in our ecosystems
- The basics of mushroom cultivation and how small-scale mushroom farming works
- Insights into the benefits and uses of medicinal mushrooms
- Step-by-step guidance on how to care for your very own mushroom kit for optimal yields
🍄 What's Included:
Each participant will receive a mushroom growing kit—choose from pink or blue oyster mushrooms, or the deliciously meaty lion’s mane. These kits are beginner-friendly and designed for success, even if you’ve never grown mushrooms before.
Spaces are limited, so come ready to get your hands dirty (in the best way) and leave with a kit, new skills, and a deeper appreciation for the fungal kingdom.
