I'm taking a mushroom cultivation course in May...Unfortunately, it'll have to be online now though. We have 3 indoor/outdoor kitties and a well-behaved shepherd/lab mix. She can easily run around without a lease and is trustworthy, just like we are. We both want to learn more about hydroponics and permaculture and are fast learners. I'm a great cook too.

I would love to tell you more about it.
