Garden Mushrooms

Growing Mushrooms As Garden Allies

Mushrooms can be cultivated in many micoclimates a diverse garden provides.  There are a couple of species that are very easy to cultivate.  The Garden Giant (Stropharia rugoso-annulata) in woodchips and straw mulch and the Almond Portobello (Agaricus subrufescens) in compost.  We’ll have more information about growing these and other species as this site develops.
