We are super excited today because we have just had a delivery of our fungus kit! Yes, you heard that right...a fungus kit! To (hopefully) grow our own mushrooms.
After the fungus kit arrived in school, our Eco Warriors, Kali, Dawid, Sophie, Taygan, Daniel, Millie and Megan got stuck straight in with their new (very important) roles including:
- Chief Executive of Fungus Growing - the one who will sign up your team and make sure everyone knows their responsibilities.
- Fridge Monitor in Chief - needs access to a fridge.
- Pasteurisation Executive - they're in charge of the pasteurisation process.
- Director of Mycelium Dispersion - don't worry, this will all become clear.
- Vice-President of Fungal Hydration - must be willing to get wet (not really).
We will be competing with teams around the country to see who can successfully nurture the fungal mycelium to produce a fully grown mushroom.
We have completed the first two steps and now our Mycelium is in a warm, dark place for the next four weeks!
Watch this space for updates on our fungus.
