At Ecology Action of Texas, our mission is to educate and empower people to create a healthier environment.
Ecology Action has been at the forefront of waste diversion and conservation efforts since it's founding in 1969, from creating Austin's first recycling program, to our current work of recycling the landfill itself! In 2015 we closed our downtown recycling center to focus our efforts at Circle Acres, where we are transforming a former landfill into a nature preserve to be enjoyed by all. Through tours, events, volunteer days, summer camps, and field trips, we engage our community in landfill diversion and remediation, towards a vision of a zero waste world.
This event will be a basic overview and hands-on demo of substrate pasteurization, inoculation, and low-tech cultivation methods - All the while keeping the overlap between Fungiculture and Bioremediation as a major topic in our discussion. Sunday we will inoculate the pasteurized straw and stuff it in 4ft plastic columns which we'll place inside the spawn room.
Please park at 420 Kemp St and walk down the dirt access road. Bring water to drink, everything else needed will be provided.
