Explore the magic world of mushrooms

Only 15 places available

Spend the day with Babylonstoren’s head gardener, Alex Bosman, to discover more about the functions and uses of fungi in our garden. Walk the farm to better understand how fungi fulfil a vital role in our garden, from plant health to insect and pathogen biocontrol.

Enter the mushroom room to see how we cultivate different types of mushrooms for our restaurants. Alex will also share and demonstrate a few tricks to cultivate beautiful oyster mushrooms to grow (and harvest!) at home. Babel’s chefs will take the wonder of fungi from garden to table with a mushroom-inspired lunch.

Steaming coffee from the Farm Shop is served upon arrival.
Lunch at the Old Bakery is included.
