About this episode

In this episode I'm joined by Katie and Jon Tlush from Tlush Family Farm near Philadelphia. Among other things, Katie and Jon are growing and selling both mushrooms and microgreens, growing both indoors.

This is a really interesting episode, especially if mushroom growing is something you have been considering or are interested in.

Katie and Jon have grown their business very quickly, and provide lots of good information and motivation throughout the episode.

Discussed in this episode:

  • How within 9 months, Katie and Jon have outgrown their basement grow room, and are ready for a commercial facility.
  • The whole process of mushroom growing - how you do it, the challenges, where to sell them etc.
  • Running a microgreens business as a couple.
  • Hydroponic and aeroponic farming.
  • Indoor edible flower growing.
