Toronto · mycology, taught in person

Grow mushrooms at home.
Build the machine that does it.

Learn to cultivate mushrooms and build the smart, sensor-driven hardware that grows them, in hands-on classes with real people, growing toward a mycology lab we'll all share.

The course ladder

Four courses. Each one opens the next.

Two ways in, biology or electronics, that meet in the flagship build, then climb to real lab mastery. Every course stands on its own, and points to where you go next.

What you take home

A living system you built and understand

The flagship course sends you home with real hardware and a real culture, not a kit you assembled, but a system you understand well enough to change.

  • A smart incubation chamber

    Heat, humidity, airflow and light, held automatically by an ESP32 you wired and programmed.

  • A live culture, self-inoculated

    You start it yourself with clean technique, then watch it colonize on your own timelapse.

  • The skills to keep going

    Not a black box: you leave able to troubleshoot, tune, and grow again on your own.

A community mycology lab, in the making.

Join us for hands-on classes now, and help shape the shared space we're growing toward.
