Fungal guidance

Dr. Omoanghe Isikhuemhen's research-based goal of making North Carolina a hotbed for production of edible and medicinal mushrooms will be hitting the road in coming weeks. Registration is now under way for a series of workshops, across the state, at which Dr. Omon and Extension agents and farmers will be giving hands-on instruction in inoculating oak logs with spawn that will turn them into shiitake mushroom producers in a few weeks. Workshops are scheduled for:
Feb. 24:1 p.m.,  Whistle Pig Acres in Caldwell County (Contact Seth Nagy)
March 3: 10 a.m., Durham County (Contact Michelle Wallace)
March 10: 3 p.m., Union County—4620 Tom Starnes Road, Waxhaw (Contact Jeff Rieves)
