May Mushroom Days: Log Inoculation

  • Falaha Farms 259 Sugar Loaf Mountain Road Chester, NY, 10918 United States (map)

Description: Join the fungi fun during our Log Inoculation Days! If you've ever wanted to learn more about how mushroom logs get made and get some hands-on experience, here's your chance. (And if you've taken one of my workshops and just want more experience, this one's for you!)

Learn the techniques of shiitake log inoculation along with oyster totem building. Discover which wood species work best with which spawn. Use hand tools including drills and modified grinders, thumb and palm inoculators, and wax applicators. Explore how to get your own laying yard started!

Safety:

  • We'll be outside in the fresh air (and hopefully sunshine), but masks are encouraged to help everyone feel safe

  • I'll provide safety glasses as well as spray alcohol to wipe them down

  • I have plenty of work gloves, but if you prefer, please bring your own pair

  • Children 10+ are welcome

Dates and Times:

Saturday, May 1: 2–5 pm

Saturday, May 8, 2–5 pm

Sunday, May 16: 2–5 pm

Saturday, May 22: 2–5 pm

Contact: If you're going to drop by, just let me know ahead of time so I can anticipate how many people might be there on any given day. Email: falahacenter@gmail.com
