Mushroom Cultivation Workshop with Darren Le Baron

Rewild Your Roots. Cultivate the Future.

For the first time in Copenhagen, as part of the visionary exhibition The Habitable Skin, we are honored to host the legendary Darren Le Baron and his world-renowned Shroomshop:


Mushroom Cultivation Workshop.

In this immersive, hands-on day, we will journey into the wisdom of the wild—exploring how mushrooms teach us to grow, regenerate, and connect. Whether you’re a curious beginner or a long-time land steward, this workshop will root you in both the ancient stories and modern science of fungi.

Set within the living architecture of Bygaard, a pioneering urban farm and cultural haven, and woven into the curatorial fabric of CAFX's The Habitable Skin— exploring new relationships between human bodies, buildings, and biomes—this event invites you to experience cultivation as both act and metaphor.

What You’ll Learn:

• The life cycle of mushrooms and their ecological significance
• How to grow gourmet and medicinal mushrooms at home
• Creating your own grain spawn and fruiting tub
• Mycological aftercare, sourcing, and troubleshooting
• Insights into fungi as food, medicine, and spiritual ally

The Workshop Includes:

• Introduction to Kernekultur – A Source Cultural Movement
• Welcome by Bygaard and its regenerative, community-based vision
• Introduction to Darren Le Baron and his global mycological mission
• Mushroom Cultivation 101: full hands-on workshop
• Mushroom growkit to take home
• Digital cultivation notes for your continued journey

Practical Notes:

• All materials provided
• Workshop conducted in English
• Curiosity and an open mind required

About Darren Le Baron:

Darren is an educator, speaker, horticulturist, and mycological alchemist. Known internationally for his transformative Shroomshop masterclasses, he blends ancestral African wisdom with cutting-edge psychedelic science, empowering individuals and communities to regenerate soil, soul, and society.

The Habitable Skin

A visionary installation exploring how architecture can become a living interface—supporting not just human life, but entire ecosystems. Originally developed for the Danish Pavilion at the 2027 Venice Biennale, where it was shortlisted for curation, the project is now exhibited for the first time at CAFX. Blurring the lines between building and biome, this sensory, regenerative work invites us to reimagine the “skin” of architecture as a site of coexistence—where fungi, soil, water, and more-than-human species are not just welcomed, but woven into the future of design.

Come as you are. Leave with a deeper knowing.

May the spores be with you, allways in all ways.
