📅 Tuesday 12th January 2027 | 7:00 pm GMT | Online via Microsoft Teams

Discover the magic of growing delicious gourmet mushrooms outdoors using one of the oldest and most sustainable cultivation methods!

Join RHS Gold medal-winning mushroom growers Caley Brothers for this fun and informative 45-minute online workshop, where we'll guide you through the fascinating process of growing mushrooms on natural hardwood logs.

Log growing is a wonderfully low-maintenance way to cultivate mushrooms, turning a simple piece of wood into a productive mushroom habitat that can provide seasonal harvests for several years.

We'll explore which mushroom varieties thrive on logs, how to select and prepare the right wood, and demonstrate the process of inoculating logs with mushroom spawn. You'll learn about the fascinating role of mycelium in breaking down wood, the importance of positioning and moisture, and how to encourage successful fruiting throughout the seasons.

We'll also share practical advice on harvesting, cooking and making the most of your homegrown mushrooms, alongside tips for incorporating mushroom logs into gardens, allotments and woodland spaces.

Whether you're a keen gardener, a curious beginner or looking for new ways to grow your own food, this workshop will give you the knowledge and confidence to start your own mushroom log-growing adventure.

Your choice of mushroom log-growing kit is included and will be sent out after the workshop, so you can put your new knowledge into practice and begin your own outdoor mushroom-growing journey.

A wonderfully rewarding way to connect with nature and enjoy homegrown mushrooms for years to come!
