Description

Insect populations are plummeting and expected to lose 40% of species in the next 20 years due to habitat loss and the use of broad spectrum pesticides. This class teaches the innovative and ground breaking techniques of how to isolate and amplify more target specific strains of fungal biomass to create bioregional solutions with basic kitchen equipment and very little lab experience. A game-changer in the organic paradigm shift, these techniques are cutting edge and low tech, meaning they are extremely low-cost and highly effective, while protecting the majority of your insect population and biodiversity in your garden or on your farm. Attendees will learn DIY techniques on how to collect insects, infect stock cultures, inoculate plants and how to treat crops using low tech and no tech strategies that require little to no investment using basic or no lab skills.
