Mushrooms are a remarkable source of food and medicine that have been  
cultivated and wild-crafted by humans for thousands of years.

The Finger Lakes Permaculture Institute invites you to our workshops  
that introduce participants to the world of mushrooms, their link to  
healthy soils and forests, and their growing potential on both a home  
and commercial scale.

We will inoculate shiitake, oyster, and stropharia mushrooms and  
discuss how to successfully raise multiple harvests.

The two-day course goes more in depth into mushroom laying yard design  
and the economics of production. Mushrooms have a good potential for  
income generation
with high market value and low start up costs.

Both one day and two-day classes include forest walks that discuss  
ecology and best management practices for forestry management.

Workshop participants receive complete instruction and take home an  
inoculated log, coffee ground substrate, and instructional booklet  
with further
resources.
