Growing Mushrooms in the Willamette Valley
Living Culture - Episode 70.1 We visit Jen and Dustin Olsen of The Mushroomery. The Olsen's cultivate gourmet and medicinal mushrooms on their small farm near Lebanon, Oregon. They also harvest wild mushrooms and teach workshops on growing mushrooms at home. We join them as they inoculate pasturized straw with Oyster Mushroom sawdust spawn. Living Culture is a television series that showcases cuisine and agriculture in the Pacific Northwest. Our mission is to generate interest in local foods through inspiring and positive media. Produced by Nate Rafn. Music by Daniel Rafn. Visit www.livingcultureonline.com.

it doesn't have to be sterile after you have created the spawn, you could grow in a public restroom if your spawn to substrate ratio was 1:1

Pasteurization (or pasteurization,) is a process of heating a food etc, to a specific temperature for a predefined length of time and then immediately cooling it after it is removed from the heat. This process slows spoilage due to microbial growth in the food. Basically removing bacteria through process. I grow tobacco so.... I hope I'm right in this instance, never grown shrooms before but I do love to eat them. Culinary delight. .. Up-loader: If i'm wrong, please correct me. Nice vid.
