FREE Advanced Fungi Culturing Course

Culturing mushroom mycelium is not a difficult task, especially if you know where and how it all begins.

​Our intention is to teach and train individuals in a convenient online offering, how to grow their own edible and medicinal mushrooms - from culturing to cultivation. This mushroom course is called the "Advanced Fungi Culturing Course" as you will learn, in great detail, the methods and processes used to culture mycelium. Once you've applied your newly acquired knowledge from this mushroom course, you will come to realise that it is not as difficult as you thought and you will understand why we use the slogan "fear not the fungi".
