About the Farm

Background

Since 2020, the farm has been providing fresh mushrooms and Grow Your Own mushroom products to neighbors through Farmer's Markets and regional events. It has grown each year, expanding facilities and bringing in new equipment. The business is woman-owned and aims to become a worker-owned cooperative.

Practices

The farm operates off-grid using solar power and grows mushrooms in biodegradable bags to reduce microplastic concerns. It adheres to the Certified Naturally Grown program, using organic, non-GMO substrates. The farm produces spawn in a customized mycology lab with a sterile environment, ensuring high-quality mushrooms. Myco-remediation and regenerative agriculture practices are central to their farming philosophy.

The Rest

The farm offers free educational presentations and interactive workshops for community groups. They also provide property walks to help identify and advise on growing mushrooms. The business sells indoor grow kits and spawn for various edible mushroom species. They have participated in regional and state grant programs, contributing to mycological research and receiving recognition for their efforts.
