About the Farm

Background

Established in 1982, Far West Fungi has grown into a premier provider of gourmet mushrooms and culinary experiences. Known for their commitment to sustainability and quality, they offer a wide range of premium mushrooms, mushroom-based products, and educational resources. Over the years, they have delighted food enthusiasts, chefs, and nature lovers with their exceptional taste and passion for mushrooms.

Practices

The farm focuses on organic cultivation methods to produce specialty mushrooms such as shiitake, tree oyster, lion's mane, maitake, and king oyster. Their dedication to sustainability ensures that their farming practices not only yield high-quality produce but also maintain the health of the land. By providing locally grown mushrooms, they support the local ecosystem and reduce the carbon footprint associated with long-distance food transportation.

The Rest

Far West Fungi operates a store at the Ferry Building where customers can purchase mushroom growing kits, dried mushrooms, and other fungi-related products. They also participate in farmers' markets and have retail locations in San Francisco and Santa Cruz. Their products, including fresh mushrooms and dry goods, are available in local SF Bay Area grocery stores. Additionally, they offer educational resources to inspire creativity in the kitchen and promote the benefits of mushrooms.
