Growing Backyard Mushrooms

Did you know you can grow edible mushrooms in your backyard? Shady, oak-filled yards are great for growing shiitake mushrooms.

In this free workshop, Jason Schmidt, a local gardener and staff member of Grow Oak Ridge, will explain the basics of growing shiitake mushrooms on an oak log, from the inoculation stage to the care of the log or bed, to harvesting and how to use them in your cooking.

The Feb. 19 workshop is for information only. If you would like to make your own shiitake mushroom log, reserve your spot in the Mushroom Inoculation Station, March 5 HERE.
