ReishiWorkshop

Join mushroom cultivator and forager Kacy Binz for a deep dive into the fascinating world of Reishi, often called the Mushroom of Immortality. This legendary fungus has been revered in traditional medicine for thousands of years for its ability to support longevity, vitality, immunity, and stress resilience—earning its almost-mythical name.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn:

  • Why Reishi is known as the Mushroom of Immortality, including its powerful medicinal properties and historical use
  • How to identify and forage Reishi safely in the wild
  • Why Reishi is medicine, not food—it’s too tough and woody to eat, but incredibly potent when prepared properly as
    Reishi Mushroom Crown

    tea, tinctures, or extracts

  • How Reishi can be used for art and jewelry, thanks to its beautiful, lacquered surface that preserves well and can be used decoratively
  • How to grow your own Reishi, including making a take-home Reishi grow kit

Reishi mushrooms are more rare and slower-growing than oysters, making them extra special—but with the right

knowledge and care, they’re absolutely within reach for home growers. This workshop is designed to empower and inspire, whether you’re brand new to mushrooms or already cultivating.

✨ Reishi tea will be provided so you can experience this medicinal mushroom firsthand.

 

Kacy Binz, mushroom cultivator & forager

 

 

Kacy has experience growing a wide variety of delectable mushrooms, such as lions mane, oysters, piopinno, white beech, chestnut, nameko and more.  She also enjoys foraging for wild mushrooms and plants, as well as making tea blends and tinctures. Her goal is to inspire people to incorporate more mushrooms into their diet, to become more connected with nature and our source of food, and to make delicious and creative recipes using mushrooms!

English Lavender Wreath Workshop in June

January 18, 2026 by Adrienne Crombie

Date: Saturday, June 13th

Times: 10am – 12noon

1pm -3pm

$160 pp

Wreath Workshop

Join us on the farm to make a wreath of freshly harvested Super Blue lavender with Nicole of Spadaflora Botanical Artistry

As a part of our workshop, you will pick some lavender right out of the field. It takes a LOT of lavender to create this, and so the lion’s share of it will be fresh cut and ready for you to fashion into your wreath. There is nothing like the color and scent of fresh lavender and it will dry beautifully, lasting well into the next year. Nicole will guide you to adhere it properly and distribute it nicely around your 12inch wreath support.

Lavender lemonade and lavender shortbread cookies will be served to nibble and sip.

Be sure to take the time to enjoy a stroll around the farm. It is the most beautiful time of year!

This workshop is limited to 8 attendees. In the event of rain, the workshop will be held in our new renovated Workshop Space.
