Did you know? Oyster mushrooms are true recycling champions!
Weekend of Science
At ARTIS-Micropia you can become an oyster mushroom grower for a day. In this 30-minute workshop you will learn how to cultivate oyster mushrooms using items you would normally throw away: coffee grounds and an empty milk carton.
What will you do?
Oyster mushrooms are edible fungi that don’t need soil or a garden, just a little moisture, air and care. Step by step, you will create your own growing kit to take home. Before you know it, you’ll be harvesting your own home-grown oyster mushrooms. And who knows – you might just become a budding mycologist (fungus expert)!
