Class at the Farm: Fungal Farmsteading

Join MycoSentience for an immersive, hands-on workshop where you’ll learn how to grow gourmet oyster mushrooms the natural way. You'll leave with a fully prepared fruiting log, the knowledge to repeat the process on your own, and a deeper connection to the fungal world.

This log-based method is practical, low-maintenance, and long-lasting. Unlike plastic grow kits, it offers a more sustainable approach that can keep producing mushrooms for seasons to come. It’s perfect for beginner growers and ideal for anyone curious about food, farming, or fungi.

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to:
• Select and prepare your log
• Introduce mushroom spawn into drilled holes
• Seal the log with hot wax
• Care for it as it incubates and begins to fruit over time

All materials are provided, including your log, tools, spawn, and a downloadable guide to take home. No prior experience is needed—just curiosity, a willingness to learn, and maybe a little love for mushrooms.

Hosted at Life Farms, our organic farm in Clearwater, Florida, this gathering takes place in a living landscape where learning, growing, and connection all take root. Let’s become stewards of future fungal fruitings together!
