Philadelphia Mycology Club Tours Mycopolitan
March 11 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
** Registration is limited for this event. Please only register if you feel sure you will come and please cancel your ticket if you are no longer coming**
It’s that time of year again when Mycopolitan treats us to the only mushrooms to be found in winter in the greater Philly region!
Join Mycopolitan Mushroom Farmers for a tour of their facilities. You’ll see first-hand the basics of mushroom farming: substrate prep, sterilization, inoculation, incubation, and harvest. Have your burning mushroom questions answered! After the tour there will be an opportunity to purchase grow kits, plug spawn, lions mane, shiitake, and many more fresh mushrooms.
If you are unable to attend to on the 11th another tour of the farm will be held on Thursday, March 20th @ 6:30 – 8 PM. If you or another member of your party end up not being able to attend after you have registered for a ticket please cancel said reservation(s) or let us know, so we can mush lovingly pass them on to someone else.
Also please do not come unregistered! We have to respect our fungi farm friends’ facilities LIMITED SPACE.
The entrance for this event is around the side of the building on D street, at the end of the dead end. There are 2 SEPTA buses that stop at the cross street of the facility for folks who are unable to drive. The parking is limited for the facility, but there is ample off street parking across Erie Ave. If you have extra space and are willing to take a fellow mycophile, please consider signing up to carpool.
This event and others like it are free for everyone. If you are able, please support our mission by making a donation to our PayPal.
