Grow mushrooms at home
Growing delicious oyster mushrooms indoors
In this Helsieni workshop you will learn how to get a mushroom harvest all year round. In the workshop we will go through the basic biology of fungi and give tips on growing mushrooms at home. We will prepare and fill an oyster mushroom Growkit, which you will take home, so you can follow the growth of mycelium and fungi from start to finish.
Grow mushrooms in your garden
Different varieties can be grown outdoors
Do you have a balcony, yard, summer house or forest? In this workshop we will demonstrate different ways to grow mushrooms outside and each participant gets to make their own mushroom log. We also cover the biology of fungi that will give you a better understanding of the factors that affect the growing of mushrooms.
Mushroom workshops for companies
A completely new and different teambuilding experience
This 1-hour workshop introduces you and your colleagues to the fascinating world of mushrooms and explains their role in our ecosystem. After a short theoretical part, we get to inoculating an oyster mushroom Growkit, which each participant gets to take home. We go over how to create the right conditions and how to restart the kit using coffee grounds. After a few weeks oyster mushrooms will magically grow out from the box!
We ended the team planning day with a relaxed moment together, learning about oyster mushroom cultivation under Helsieni’s guidance. The workshop was carefully planned, engaging and full of inspiring expertise. It was nice to try something completely new together. We got some great growing kits to take home and we can continue working together by comparing yields and sharing recipes in the team chat.
