Mycoliteracy
We want to empower people to engage in growing their own healthy, tasty food - like mushrooms!
Some things you will learn in our courses:
- demystify mushrooms
- how to source materials
- how to grow a steady supply of mushrooms not from a grow kit
Why should you buy your courses:
- overcome your fear of fungi
- not as hard as you think
- connect with down to earth instructors
Whether you want to grow mushrooms year round indoors or seasonally outdoors we have workshops to get you started!
Who is Fungi Akuafo?
This is the story of a country mouse and city mouse who united over a love and curiosity of fungi...
Meghan lives on a farm outside of Sundre, AB and Tara lives right in Calgary, AB. Meghan and Tara met at a Permaculture Design Course in 2014 and became fast friends. In 2016, Meghan and Tara seized the opportunity to open Fungi Akuafo, a mushroom spawn company with the goal of making mushroom cultivation more accessible to DIY growers, gardeners and small commercial growers.
We realized early on that demystify the world of mycelium and mushrooms was just as important as producing spawn. Thus, education became one of our core values.
