Mushroom Guru"The Mushroom is the Teacher"
The word guru, as a noun, means "teacher" or "imparter of knowledge" in Sanskrit.
As an adjective, guru means "heavy with knowledge". Mushrooms have more to teach us than you know. Welcome to Mushroom Guru. This website is designed to give you accurate information about mushrooms that you can eat and mushrooms that you should avoid.
If you would like to learn how to grow these mystifying specimens yourself...we may have a solution for you. Mushroom Guru delivers mushroom education via informal attendance workshops and courses and social media platforms. Mushroom Guru also produces spawn and mushroom cultures for the general public and to a growing mushroom cultivating community called fungkifriends™ From spawn and cultivation supplies, to training hosted at the factory in Strand, Mushroom Guru has become the "go-to" website for mushroom information in South Africa. Fungal Lab We boast a culture library of 64 mushroom species, of which you get to choose 10 at our Advanced Fungi Culturing Course

Once you have made up your own bag and learnt how to add the mushroom spawn, you then take it home and look after it. In a short while, you will have mushrooms growing from your grow bag. Read more
Lab Training
This fungi culturing course is NOT a group mushroom course. You will be only one of two delegates on the day and will therefore receive the required attention that you need, to learn in your own way. Your learning and instruction will come from: documents designed for this fungi course; practical
demonstrations; assistance and guidance from Craig. The four sections of the mushroom course overlap each other in content, which all compliment one another. Read more
