You&#x27;ll also learn about mushroom gardening, principals of mushroom identification, and pretty much all things mushroom.Open to all ages!Benjamin Jaffe is the owner of Marrowstone Mushrooms - located in the heart of Capital Hill, Seattle. They supply the local community with a variety of fresh mushrooms for sale, as well as mushroom tinctures, extracts, spawn, and even mushroom grow kits.P﻿ricing*Please note when registering that you can attend the workshop with a donation of any amount, but it you want to take home a grow kit it is $20.
