Growing mushrooms(蘑菇)is probably the easiest thing you can do even if you are new to mushroom growing. It is becoming more common because restaurants are starting to create more dishes that include mushrooms.

Mushroom growing is easy. To start, you need to have a space where you are going to grow these mushrooms. It does not have to be a huge space but just enough for you to grow as many mushrooms as you need. When you have found the space perfect for you, you can start researching what kind of mushrooms you want to grow. There are a lot of mushrooms to choose from and not all of them are suitable to eat.

When you decide what kind of mushrooms you want to grow, you can start getting ready to plant the mushrooms. Sometimes you may want to hire some workers to help if you have a large mushroom farm, or if you are trying to start a professional mushroom growing business. Trying to have a business by yourself can be stressful. If you don't have enough time to spend taking care of everything yourself, some helpers may be the best choice.

After you have started the mushroom growing, you should regularly check that your mushrooms grow properly and that they are not being attacked by any pesticides(农药)or any other animals or something that could be dangerous to them. That is the worst part of mushroom developing. Protect your mushroom farm well with a fence(围栏)or a gate so that only you and your workers can get in and out.

Mushroom growing is not difficult and it is easy to get stared in the world of farming. You will soon possibly be able to provide some of the great cooks of the world with high quality mushrooms that will be enjoyed by thousands of people all over the world.

Cindy Soule is a teacher in Portland, Maine, an area known for very cold and snowy winters. But cold weather is not stopping Soule and her students from continuing with outdoor learning during COVID-19.

Besides online learning, schools across the U. S. also encourage outdoor learning to keep students and teachers safe and stop the spread (传播) of COVID-19. In Portland, they set up over 90 outdoor learning spaces across eight schools.

"The students seem to like the outdoor classroom. They're begging me to go out," said Soule. They study in usual classrooms for half the week. For the other half, they learn outdoors.

Adam Ali is one of Soule's students. The 9-year-old boy noted some of the differences between outdoor learning and online learning.

"It's a good thing because you can see the real thing," Ali said. "We learn what is around us. It's much better than online learning. We have Internet, but it's just very slow. If anybody else in the house is on the Internet, it's really hard to do things. "

For schools in Portland, the pandemic (流行病) has marked the first official use of outdoor learning. And they will keep it going even after the pandemic ends.

Soule said her students will never forget the pandemic's difficulties. But she hoped studying in nature will be among their good memories of 2020.

"They' re seeing the outdoors around them and learning. They love it. Students learn better when they' re active," Soule said. "They will remember that forever. "

When a disaster happens, you might find yourself without water, gas and electricity. You might even need to leave your home with little warning. But disasters don't have to surprise you. Plan before something bad happens.

  Hold a family meeting. Discuss the types of disasters that could happen. Then plan a way to make your family be with each other if they get away. Choose two places for everyone to go to if it isn't safe to return home. The first should be near your house. You can go there in a very dangerous situation like a fire. The second meeting place should be outside your neighborhood. This will give your family a place to come together if you must evacuate(疏散撤离).

Next, choose a contact (联络) person outside your area. After a disaster, it is often easier to exchange information or talk with other people over a long-distance call than a local one. A contact person can pass messages between family members if they can't meet or get in touch with each other.

Then create a family disaster work-box. It should include everything your family needs to survive for at least three days. Place your tools in a bag, so you can carry it if you need to evacuate. When getting ready for it, remember that different people have different needs, including special items necessary for not only elderly but young members of your family.
