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
flavorful and diverse fungi to their diets, but lack the knowledge
or confidence to gather or grow their own. Do-it-yourself
cultivation is a fun, exciting way to incorporate a variety of
mushrooms into a sustainable lifestyle. Mycelial Mayhem is a
straightforward, no-nonsense resource for the aspiring mushroom
grower. This practical guide cuts through much of the confusion
surrounding methods and techniques, helping the hobbyist or farmer
to: Select regionally appropriate species for the home garden,
farm-scale production, or an edible landscape Practice sustainable,
environmentally friendly cultivation techniques, such as companion
planting, to combat common garden pests and diseases Choose a
successful, proven business approach to maximize profit and
minimize frustration Many people find that DIY mushroom cultivation
is not nearly as complicated as they expect, but a knowledgeable
and experienced mentor is crucial to success. 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 with this rewarding and
valuable crop. David Sewak and Kristin Sewak are avid growers of
edible mushrooms, heirloom vegetables, native landscape plants and
sustainable landscape design. They speak on mushroom gathering and
indoor and outdoor cultivation techniques at regional and national
green living events.
