COLUMBUS—Lizza Bixby, Director of Education at Mushroom Mountain in Easley, South Carolina, will present “Learn to Grow Gourmet Mushrooms” on Monday, November 25, at 5 p.m. at Columbus Library.

In this informative, hands-on workshop, the mycologist and mushroom enthusiast will unveil the mysteries of growing mushrooms at home. Lizza will discuss two growing methods – one for recycling kitchen waste, such as used coffee grounds, to grow mushrooms like Oysters indoors and another for growing mushrooms like Shiitakes in fresh hardwood logs. 

Attendees should come prepared to get dirty as they will be participating in the demonstration. The first 40 participants to arrive will take home a mini mushroom fruiting cup. 

No registration is required for this event.
