There are few groups we respect more than the small mushroom farmers of America, who provide fresh, nutritious, and high-quality mushrooms for their communities. Mushrooms have a short shelf life, and the tastiest ones (in our opinion) can often only be sourced locally or cultivated yourself such as lions' mane, maitake, and the ubiquitous and easy-to-grow oysters.

​

Many local farms have great relationships with their customers, build a sense of community and provide resources to learn more about farming practices, mushrooms, and many even offer workshops, tours, and mushroom cultivation courses. ​

By sourcing your mushrooms locally you are also supporting the environment, through an eco-friendly and regenerative food supply chain to reduce the environmental impact of food markets. In fact, if we all replaced 20% of meat with mushrooms by 2056 we'd have 56% less deforestation globally.*
