Now you can grow big crops of gourmet mushrooms right in your home, greenhouse, or garden with our simple to use mushroom kits. Mushrooms are one of the most versatile kitchen ingredients, and they are almost foolproof to grow. They are easy to plant, effortless to maintain, and many are beneficial to the landscape, as they increase moisture in the soil and release a compound called octanol, which attracts earthworms that aerate and fertilize the soil. Mushrooms grow quickly, and some are highly ornamental, making them perfect for edible gardens. They are a great alternative to meat and can also be made into healthful extracts. In fact, reishi mushrooms have gained quite a reputation as medicinal mushrooms; however, most mushrooms have health benefits.
We have a wide range of mushrooms from which to choose. Shiitake mushrooms are one of the most widely cultivated mushrooms around the world. Healthy and delicious, they are high in protein and have a strong, earthy flavor, which make them a popular meat substitute as well as a welcome addition to endless recipes. Lion’s mane pom pom mushrooms not only taste like crabmeat but also make beautiful and exotic looking additions to the landscape. Oyster mushrooms, both blue and golden, are among the easiest mushrooms to grow. Some say they have a subtle oyster flavor (hence, the name), but others say they taste nutty, like cashews. And these are just a few of the varieties we carry.
Mushroom kits are an ideal gift for children, gardeners, and anyone who loves fresh mushrooms.
