I am looking for 1-2 Victoria-based folks to help out with mushroom chores over the next few months. My proposed trade is for 20 hrs of work valued at $15/hr in exchange for a space in an upcoming weekend-long mushroom cultivation course (tentatively June 1-3rd) + spawn. Things I need help with include: gathering and prepping substrates (chopping straw, getting woodchips, prepping buckets and jars and cardboard), making airport lids and sterilizing needles/syringes for liquid culture, postering, organizing the cultivation space, and a bit of help with setup and takedown at the course. If you’re interested in learning to cultivate mushrooms for food, medicine and remediation, this will be a great supplement to the course as you’ll get embodied experience with the first key phases in mushroom cultivation. PM if you’re interested with a bit of info about yourself and why you’re interested, and your availability.
Hi Danielle
I would love to be your ‘helper’ but I will be out of town until June 11
I could set up some mushroom things next week

Hi Barry,
If you wanted to do some work this week that could help, though the challenge is that you’d miss the course which is the trade… (its set for June 2-3)…. what do you think?
