Given the opportunity and the know-how, would you try growing mushrooms in your backyard?
This morning, Nissa brought me an oyster mushroom fruiting bag from their trip to Amadeo, Cavite last Saturday. It was a gift from a relative who has started mushroom production in that area. I am excited to try it. I love mushroom, any which way it is prepared and one is rest assured of its freshness and safety when it is grown in one’s backyard. this fruiting bag only needs to be sprayed with water twice a day and should be kept in a dark and cool place. Wish me luck, I hope it gives me a nice cluster in two weeks. She also brought a pack of Amadeo Coffee. It’s a different kind from the instant one that we are used to because it is brewed. Amadeo produces the best coffee this side of town and is also known as the coffee capital of the Philippines. Gonna try it tomorrow when I have enough time to prepare it and enjoy a sip.
Now I learned what a “sandwich hug” is. Nate is just so showy with how it’s done with Nissa and me, our three heads so close together with him in the middle holding tight with a bonus kiss. What a lovely Saturday, another visit that I would treasure 🙂
I hope it is not too late if I greet you a nice weekend too! Happy weekend friends. Keep those smiles 🙂
Good luck with the mushrooms Arlene. Not something I would have thought of, as they have to be kept somewhere dark, and are cheap enough to buy (at least over here). I expect your home-grown ones will taste better though!
Best wishes from England. Pete.

We’ll see how it goes Pete, thanks! Mushrooms are quite expensive here. I’ll take a pic when they’re ready for harvest.

Am sure it would be a thrill to harvest your own mushrooms. Watch out, before long you would be in mushroom business.
