Mushroom Bed

 

Planted as a demo for of the Mushroom Growing Workshop we hosted here on Dec 15, we inoculated several layers of woodchips with Garden Giant mushroom mycelium.  Though it is not the ideal time of year to create an outdoor mushroom bed (Spring is best so that is has the longest time to get established before cold), this warm weather and rain is surely helping the mycelium to get cozy and established.  Here's hoping the garden giants make a home for themselves there and we see mushrooms come Summer!

Here are few photos from the workshop.  (More photos to come....)
