Growing gourmet and medicinal mushrooms for forest farming in the Northeast
Welcome to the NY Forest Mushroom Growers Network. This web site is an initiative of a larger forest cultivated mushroom research and extension project at Cornell University, and a Northeast SARE funded research /extension project, "Shiitake Enterprises for Farms and Forests in the Northeast". Our goal is to encourage adoption of specialty forest mushrooms as one of the non timber forest crops that may be grown for profit as part of the agroforestry system known as Forest Farming. In addition to providing information about the mechanics of how to cultivate specialty forest mushrooms based on our own experience as well as extensive resources available online and in print, this website is also intended to foster communication and cooperation among amateur and professional mushroom growers, and those who are interested in trying.
