The information shared was comprehensive and easily digestible, and the instructors had confident answers to all participant questions. We were walked through innnoculation of our first DIY mushroom mini-farm and provided with supplies for a second round of growing. The in-person course is supplemented by an in-depth online content library paired with a platform for community discussion.

Amy and Mickey's obvious passion is infectious, and I'm stoked with their help in taking my first step into the world of mushroom cultivation.
