    The DO You Really Want to be a Farmer Course is designed for someone who is pretty certain that they want to be a farmer and like me, learn best with hands on repetition. Mushroom farming sounds romantic but can be messy, tiring, hard work. But if you’ve been bit by the bug, you’ve been bit by the bug.

    In this “Course” you’ll basically be a farm employee and will go through all of the motions that I go through on a weekly basis. There will be plenty of time for questions and also enough wiggle room to focus on what you really want to understand.

    Lodging is also available on the farm if needed. You’ll have your own apartment with a killer deck to sit out on and listen to the birds.
