Join us for a fungi-filled afternoon with our farmer-friends Erin and David from Tiny Acres Farm. This hands-on workshop will introduce you to the basics of cultivating lion’s mane mushrooms.
These unique fungi are not only delicious, but they also boast incredible medicinal benefits, including boosting brain health, enhancing memory, and supporting overall cognitive function.
Participants will learn about the history of sustainable fungi growing, log inoculation, and log care. The group will practice inoculating logs that will stay at Wanderwood, AND their own two foot section of shiitake log to take home.
Workshop will take place rain or shine in the Wanderwood event barn.
Tiny Acres will have dried mushrooms and mushroom tinctures available for purchase. Wanderwood produce will also be available for sale.
Kiddos ages 5 to 12 are encouraged to join for FREE accompanied by a paying adult! (Please let us know if this is your plan when you purchase your ticket.)
