The most unique learning environment on fungi worldwide
Over the years, many of you have come to our training centre in Belgium.
Since November 2011, our pioneer Mycelia School was organising group courses on the production of spawn, and sterilized substrates and lignicolous fungi mushrooms, which cover the whole production cycle from sawdust to specialty mushroom.
With our academy, we continue Mycelia’s tradition of sharing knowledge while constantly expanding our topics to meet the evolving needs of the industry.
