If one can follow in detail some very careful steps in starting up mushroom growing especially on a farm and even more so on a farm with permaculture as part of its design, you can feed a whole bunch of people using what you may otherwise throw away. While growing mushrooms the left overs from the production become some of the best compost and soil producer on earth. It may be a science to know too much but you may regulate how much and what you need to know.
We encountered a great set of videos that are the best introduction to general mushroom knowledge based on a community/collective farm in New Hampshire called D-Acres dacres.org which is among the best community projects we have encountered in this English speaking universe. We hope you find the videos informative and get you started on something

If you run a search on Dave Wichland and DAcres and or mushrooms there are a few more good videos on the subject. The information may not seem directly relevant for an individual doing something like this at home in an urban environment but the logic of what things work and what mushrooms really are is presented by this guy in a more complete way. We believe this is a MUST before you follow the practical instruction of how to do it. The tiny little details on those short little videos people usually miss or emphasize enough is what makes the difference between success and disaster.
