The mushroom farming on Sunday was a great success, and loads of fun too. Lots of people came along with itchy drill-trigger fingers and hot wax dabber thingies - and we filled a small mountain of logs with shiitake, oyster and chicken of the woods mushrooms. Now all we have to do is patiently wait by our foraging baskets for about six months. There were a lot of questions on the day about making the farm, so (technology permitting), I'll post a 'how to' video on here asap. In the meantime, here are some pics of our foray into fungi farming...
PS. a special thanks to muf for sponsoring our fungi spores, Folly for a Flyover for lending us their drills, and Hackney Council Parks Department for the logs.
If you want check up on the farm, just look out for this unassuming pile of leaves at the back of the meadow - next to the stag beetle habitat.
