MYCOLOGY
In 2018, after an inspiring journey through Guatemala and Mexico, Cristiano embarked on his mycological adventure by creating a mushroom farm at El Zopilote Permaculture Farm Hostel. Here, he cultivates edible mushrooms like Oyster mushrooms and medicinal varieties such as Reishi. This project is part of our larger mission to promote sustainable living and permaculture practices on the beautiful island of Ometepe in Nicaragua.
Beyond mushroom production, Cristiano has honed his skills in teaching mycology. He offers courses and guided tours, sharing his knowledge on how to grow and harvest these amazing fungi. Our mushroom farm tours provide a hands-on experience where you can learn about the entire process, from spore to harvest, and even taste the mushrooms fresh from the farm.
