Lochend Community Growing Project

Huge thank you to Marco from Rhyze Mushrooms who delivered a fantastic mushroom growing workshop to some of our members on Saturday. 🍄
* We started by learning about funghi ecology and the benefits to growing mushrooms in your garden.
* Next we drilled holes in freshly cut oak logs and hammered in dowels containing shiitake spawn.
* Following a quick lunch break we filled containers with oyster mushroom spawn and pasteurized straw to take home.
* Finally we dug various sites around the garden and layered woodchip with either oyster mushroom or wine cap mushroom spawn.
It was a brilliant day. Thank you again to Marco and thank you to the OneCityTrust for funding the workshop.
