How to grow oyster mushroom as a income generating activity. Course taken at Bunda College (2008), where spores can be purchased (in bottle). Plastic bags can be bought at Polypack.
Oyster Mushrooms are very simple to grow. I tried myself at a small scale and succeeded quite well. However... it is a lot of work prepare the bags (cutting, washing, drying and bagging). Then there are seasonal problems: during rainy season it is too wet, during winter it is too cold. Then they are occasional visitors: slugs came to eat mushrooms, and mouses to dig their nest.
Pilot projects in two communities surrounding Bunda (including one woman group) were not convincing in respect of sustainability. Mushrooms were rarely available in town.
