2025-12-06 13:00 - 15:30 (America/Chicago) | Little River Canyon Center, 4322 Little River Trail NE, Fort Payne, AL, 35967, US
Extension agent Holt Campbell will offer an introduction to “forest farming”: producing wild-simulated ginseng, gourmet mushrooms, and other high-value woodland crops. There will be a live demonstration of inoculating a shiitake mushroom log. Additionally, Jesse of Feral Foraging will show you some of the important species that can be found and gathered and the forest types they are associated with. We’ll also learn about how to interact with these species responsibly and even how foraging them can be beneficial to their populations! All participants will receive a small amount of ginseng seed. Indoors and light hiking.
Thank you to the Little River Canyon Field School for hosting us!
