Easy Mushroom Growing Indoors & Out: Catskill Fungi’s John Michelotti

In this slide talk followed by hands-on doing, learn how to grow edible and medicinal mushrooms outside and inside your home. Find out how fungi can be companion plantings to help your other plants thrive while they grow delicious mushrooms.

Catskill Fungi founder and mushroom expert John Michelotti will review some of the easy ways to integrate fungi with your landscape before teaching you how you can grow mushrooms inside, too. At the hands-on portion of this workshop, you will make your own oyster mushroom grow kit to take home, along with instructions on how to care for it and grow more mushrooms.
