Join permaculture artist, woodworker, and mushroom grower Tim for a hands-on workshop on the art of shiitake mushroom cultivation. Based in a timber-framed cottage in Maine, Tim has been cultivating a wide variety of mushrooms for over a decade and is the creator of the groundbreaking Reishi Bonsai Bowl Project.

In this workshop, Tim will share his passion and expertise, guiding you through the step-by-step process of inoculating your very own shiitake log. You’ll learn how to select the right logs, apply the spawn, and care for your project to ensure a bountiful harvest.

Take a piece of the forest home and begin your journey into the rewarding world of mushroom cultivation. All materials will be provided.

What’s Included:

    •     A hardwood log (pre-cut and ready to inoculate)

    •     Shiitake spawn plugs & hands-on inoculation with guidance

    •     Beeswax sealing + instruction

    •     A care sheet with growing tips 

    •     You’ll take home your fully inoculated shiitake log — which can fruit mushrooms for years!
