Wine Cap Mushroom Workshop

Learn how to grow organic Wine Cap mushrooms in your yard for a delicious and nutritious treat!

Dr. Richard Leep, mushroom grower, will lead us in this hands-on workshop. Participants will learn about mushroom biology, what trees can be used to inoculate with different mushroom spawn and integrated pest control in mushrooms. Together we’ll build and inoculate a bed with wine cap mushroom spawn on the farm to be harvested next spring. You’ll leave with spawn to make a 5’x5’ bed in your own yard.

This workshop is $45/person, which includes a 5 lb bag of Wine Cap sawdust spawn and will be held at Plainsong Farm (6677 12 Mile Rd NE, Rockford).

*We are committed to making these workshops accessible to everyone. If this fee is burdensome, please put in the amount you are able to pay, even if it's $0.*
