Want to gain the skills for ecological mushroom growing and build your own oyster mushroom chamber using either a 3.5-gallon bucket or a grow bag? Join us for this interactive, hands-on workshop!
Money raised will support our 30K for 30 years anniversary funding initiative. To celebrate Green Venture's milestone, we've set a goal to raise $30,000 this year to fund accessible environmental programming, vital community greening projects, and create lasting positive change for future generations. If you'd like to support our initiatives further, please select the $75.00 ticket, or see our 30-year campaign page.
By growing your own mushrooms at home, you can eliminate the need for packaging and transportation, reducing your carbon footprint while also saving money. While there’s a small initial setup cost, your mushroom system will provide multiple flushes of fresh, delicious mushrooms throughout the fruiting season.
Oyster mushrooms are nutritious, beginner-friendly, and one of the easiest varieties to grow at home. This is a perfect workshop for anyone curious about food sustainability, urban agriculture, or fungi!
