Currumbin Valley

Grow gourmet and medicinal mushrooms – Lion’s Mane, Reishi, Shiitake and more – using an easy, apartment-friendly method.

In this 2.5-hour session, you’ll create your own fruiting block from scratch using grain spawn. No big spaces, no fancy setup, and no experience needed.

Whether you’re a foodie, wellness lover or are seeking more self-sufficient practices, this is a chance to grow your own organic food and medicine, and connect with a likeminded community.

Take home your own mushroom grow kit ($40 value) – You’ll create and take home a living fruiting block to harvest your mushrooms!
Sip & learn – Enjoy a warming cup of Lion’s Mane cacao as we chat about fungi, nootropics, and the full life cycle of mushrooms – from waste to wonder.
Urban & apartment friendly – This workshop is designed for modern homes. You don’t need outdoor space or any special gear to repeat it in the future.
Surrounded by nature – Hosted creekside at Rockpool Café, you’ll be learning with fresh valley air and crystal waters nearby.

Our knowledgeable instructors will guide you through the fascinating world of fungi, its life cycles and all the phases of small-scale growing.

Discover the health benefits of different mushrooms and how to incorporate them into your life.

With over 6 years experience, Sami and Paulo have been teaching this workshop across Spain, Portugal and Europe with their love project Tiny Space Mushies.
