Take a deep dive into the Wonderful World of Mushrooms with our friends from Essential Earth Farm
During a billion years of evolution, fungi have become masters of survival. Fungi are primary decomposers that keep our forests alive. They play an integral role in decomposition. In this class attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the intricate relationship between fungi, soil, and environmental and human health. Essential Earth Farm will get into detail about what are fungi, what role do they play in our planet, edible fungi that have nutritional value, and how they grown mushrooms at their farm and how you can grow them too.
