The first Myco-Mutiny workshop series is now out.
Three sessions, three different dates, each focused on a different way of growing mushrooms at home. The aim is simple: learn practical skills without big expenses, complicated setups, or needing to think like a farmer.
This series is designed to help you get your toes in, experiment, and build confidence. We’ll look at low-tech methods, everyday materials, and home-friendly approaches that make mushroom growing accessible and enjoyable.
You don’t need a lab, a shed, or specialist equipment. You can grow mushrooms in small spaces, in different ways, and at your own pace. These workshops are about understanding the process, having a go, and finding what works for you.
Each session stands on its own, but together they form a gentle progression from basic concepts to more involved techniques.
Hi, I’m Claude, and Myco-Mutiny began with a simple grow kit and a bit of curiosity about waste.
I started growing mushrooms at home using low-tech methods, recycling coffee grounds and working with what I had rather than buying into expensive setups. That early phase shaped how I still work today: practical, accessible, and grounded in reuse.
From there, things expanded. I began exploring mushroom extraction, learning sterile techniques, and working with ethanol and ultrasonic methods. Later came freeze-drying, small-batch production, and a deeper focus on process and consistency.
As the project grew, so did the need to share it. Workshops and community events became a way to pass on what I’d learned, showing that you don’t need to be a farmer or run a lab to grow mushrooms, extract them, or experiment safely at home.
Based in Sutton, Myco-Mutiny is about making mycology accessible, rooted in science, made with care, and designed to help you grow, extract, and discover something new.
