Science on Tap - New River Valley presents the program titled "Mushroom Cultivation in the New River Valley" on Thursday, February 22, 2024 at Rising Silo Farm Brewery.
Matthew Reiss of Gnomestead Farm will help the audience explore the biology of wood-degrading macrofungi, which can be propagated in a wide array of agricultural byproducts and forestry residues. Reiss will show us how to cultivate a variety of gourmet and therapeutic mushrooms on readily accessible substrates, in indoor or outdoor environments.
Hosted by Virginia Tech’s Center for Communicating Science and the Virginia Tech chapter of Sigma Xi.
Admission is free and all are welcome.
Science on Tap - New River Valley is a monthly event with science-inspired speakers, performers, and discussions. We support bringing science to our community and our community’s support to local research.
We kick off the event with games, comedy, or other fun things. Then, an invited guest researcher demos their research. And then we'll discuss, ask questions, learn together and mingle.
