Grow Your Own Gourmet Mushrooms

  • Elmwood Farm 1014 Nolte Drive Dallas, TX, 75208 United States (map)

Join us for a hands-on workshop where you'll learn the art of cultivating oyster mushrooms using straw logs.

This beginner-friendly class covers the entire process—from preparing and pasteurizing straw to inoculating it with mushroom spawn and setting up your own fruiting log. Oyster mushrooms are ideal for home cultivation, offering a quick and satisfying harvest.

Participants will:

  • Discover the fundamentals of mushroom cultivation.

  • Learn techniques for straw preparation and pasteurization.

  • Inoculate their own straw log to take home.

  • Receive guidance on maintaining and harvesting their mushrooms.​

No prior experience is necessary, and all materials are provided. Come ready to get your hands dirty and leave with the knowledge and tools to start your own mushroom-growing adventure!​

This workshop is offered as "proud to pay” - please donate (to the instructor) what you wish!
