This in‑person program will be led by Avery Stempel and Connor Youngerman and will introduce the fundamentals of mushroom production across several growing systems. \nParticipants will learn how to grow oyster mushrooms—the world’s second most widely cultivated mushroom—in buckets using simple\, scalable techniques suitable for home\, farm\, or urban settings. The workshop will also highlight best practices\, food safety regulations\, value‑added product opportunities\, and circular agriculture applications for specialty mushrooms in New York State. \nThis is a free event\, but registration is required. Please indicate on the registration form whether you plan to take a mushroom bucket home. If so\, you must bring your own clean bucket and note its size when you register. You are not required to take a bucket home. Substrate\, spawn\, and all tools needed to prepare buckets will be provided by the workshop hosts. \nCoordinating email will be sent out a week in advance to registered participants \nQuestions may be directed to Connor at czy2@cornell.edu \n\n\n \n \n Collar City Mushroom Bucket Workshop\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n \n Step 1 of 2\n \n \n 50%\n \n \n Administrative InformationName*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Phone*Email*\n \n Address* \n \n \n \n Street Address\n \n \n Address Line 2\n \n \n City\n \n AlabamaAlaskaAmerican SamoaArizonaArkansasCaliforniaColoradoConnecticutDelawareDistrict of ColumbiaFloridaGeorgiaGuamHawaiiIdahoIllinoisIndianaIowaKansasKentuckyLouisianaMaineMarylandMassachusettsMichiganMinnesotaMississippiMissouriMontanaNebraskaNevadaNew HampshireNew JerseyNew MexicoNew YorkNorth CarolinaNorth DakotaNorthern Mariana IslandsOhioOklahomaOregonPennsylvaniaPuerto RicoRhode IslandSouth CarolinaSouth DakotaTennesseeTexasUtahU.S. Virgin IslandsVermontVirginiaWashingtonWest VirginiaWisconsinWyomingArmed Forces AmericasArmed Forces EuropeArmed Forces Pacific\n State\n \n \n ZIP Code\n \n \n CountyAlbanyAlleganyBronxBroomeCattaraugusCayugaChautauquaChemungChenangoClintonColumbiaCortlandDelawareDutchessErieEssexFranklinFultonGeneseeGreeneHamiltonHerkimerJeffersonKingsLewisLivingstonMadisonMonroeMontgomeryNassauNew YorkNiagaraOneidaOnondagaOntarioOrangeOrleansOswegoOtsegoPutnamQueensRensselaerRichmondRocklandSaint LawrenceSaratogaSchenectadySchoharieSchuylerSenecaSteubenSuffolkSullivanTiogaTompkinsUlsterWarrenWashingtonWayneWestchesterWyomingYatesFarm Business Name (if operational)What best describes your agricultural work?*\n \n \n I am an aspiring farmer (not yet farming)\n \n \n \n I am a farm manager\, employee\, intern\, volunteer\, etc.\n \n \n \n I am a beginning farmer (farming less than 10 years)\n \n \n \n I am a farmer who has been farming for over 10 years\n \n \n \n Not represented here\n If your answer was not represented above\, please provide us this information below.Are you a military veteran or currently serving?*\n \n \n Yes\n \n \n \n No\n DemographicsAre you affiliated with Cornell University?*\n \n \n Cornell Cooperative Extension\n \n \n \n Faculty\n \n \n \n Staff\n \n \n \n Student or Alumnus\n \n \n \n No Affiliation\n How do you identify?*\n \n \n Female\n \n \n \n Male\n \n \n \n Gender Non-Conforming\n \n \n \n Prefer Not to Answer\n With which of the following races or ethnic groups do you identify?*\n \n African American/Black\n \n \n American Indian/Alaska Native\n \n \n Asian\n \n \n Hawaiian Native/Other Pacific Islander\n \n \n Hispanic/Latino\n \n \n White\n \n \n Prefer Not to Answer\n \n \n Other\n NOTE: The social definition of “race” has resulted in systemic institutional racism and made it more challenging for people of color to farm.
