AN ACCESSIBLE HANDS-ON GUIDE FOR THE ASPIRING MUSHROOM GROWER "...a comprehensive and personal tome on the production, business, promotion, and problem solving for the independent mushroom grower." - TAYLOR LOCKWOOD MOST SUPERMARKET MUSHROOMS are bland and boring; products of an industrial process which typically relies on expensive equipment and harmful pesticides. Many people would like to add more flavor ful and diverse fungi to their diets, but lack the knowledge or confidence to gather or grow their own. Edible species such as shiitake, oyster, and wine cap stropharia can be easily cultivated in your home or garden, adding excitement and diversity to your diet or providing supplemental income. In addition, intercropping and companion planting can yield many benefits, including feeding your soil and improving garden yields. This straightforward, no-nonsense resource cuts through much of the confusion surrounding methods and techniques, helping the hobbyist or farmer to select regionally appropriate species for the home garden or for farm-scale production; practice sustainable, environmentally friendly cultivation techniques; and choose a successful, proven business approach to maximize profit and minimize frustration. Whether your goal is to harvest homegrown gourmet mushrooms for your table, supplement your income by selling to friends and neighbors, or start a full-fledged niche business, Mycelial Mayhem is packed with the advice and resources you need to succeed. "...draws us into the wild, weird, and wonderful world of the fungal kingdom with irresistible wit and wisdom. ... this charming and very well-informed book is both welcome and indispensable for the beginning cultivator or curious cook." - PETER BANE, author, The Permaculture Handbook "This lively, companionable book demystifies mushrooms for those of us seeking clear explanations and checklists, combined with infectious enthusiasm..." - PAM DAWLING, author, Sustainable Market Farming Prior to moving from Pennsylvania to Montana, David and Kristin Sewak co-owned Berglorbeer Farma, which specialized in edible mushrooms, heirloom vegetables, native landscape plants, and sustainable landscape design. Kristin and David speak on mushroom growing and other sustainable living topics at regional and national green living events.
