The Presidio Trust is generously providing a 30 ft x 30 ft space for the Treatability Study



The Presidio Trust's Jean Koch and Greg are generously giving up some of their work space for this study!




Paul Stamets explains to volunteers how the site will be set up



First the tarps and then the straw bales...



Paul Stamets of Fungi.com and Mario Quezada of SmartGrow.net discuss how the mushrooms and hairmats are such a natural fit!

For extra precautionary measures, 2 layers of pond liner are used to create the wells.

Separate areas are made to have concurrent studies with different methods.

The mushrooms are bursting to go!



The site is all lined and a cover tarp is in place, in case of rain.




Here's the team! We'll be back on Monday with used motor oil (and hopefully Cosco-Busan Bunker C).
