This workshop will begin with an intro to fungus cultivation where participants will be given the chance to try their hand with a take-home oyster mushroom grow kit (while supplies last!). Mushroom expert chel Iulian Fortu of Arcadia Ventures will be on site preparing a dish in which oyster mushrooms are the star for guests to try. The event will be entirely outdoors, please dress accordingly. No ticket required for entry, but donations are encouraged and appreciated. The workshop will begin at 4:00 p.m.
