I grew these pearl oysters on lime pasteurized straw from a used horse feed bag that I sat under a pine tree. Growing mushrooms can seem pretty complicated when you start looking into it but it can also be very simple! We have been eating mushrooms pretty much daily because I've found myself with very little time to sell them. Nobody seems to get tired of them. There's so many ways to cook with oyster mushrooms! If anyone wants to try out this grow method, I have PLENTY of grain spawn, lime, and empty feed bags available that I could ship as a kit with instructions. You'll just need the straw and water.

Black Pearl King Oyster. I made a few grow buckets for these to try growing them that way too. I think I'm going to need to drill bigger holes in the bucket 😜 these things are quite girthy.

I've got a bunch of oyster mushrooms grow buckets available that are about ready to start fruiting. If you like Morel mushrooms I highly recommend giving these a try! Depending on your location I may be able to offer delivery. Buckets are $30 each and will continue to produce mushrooms for several months.

Just send me a message if you're interested.

Currently I have Blue, Pearl, Wild White, Yellow, and will soon have Italian, King, Pink, and Black Pearl King oysters.

Dehydrating some Lion's Mane today. Here's a few things Lion's Mane mushrooms are good for:

1.Boosting brain function: Lion's Mane contains compounds called erinacines and hericenones, which have been shown to stimulate the growth of brain cells and improve cognitive function. Studies have suggested that Lion's Mane may be useful in treating conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
2. Reducing inflammation: Lion's Mane contains polysaccharides and other compounds that have anti-inflammatory effects. Inflammation is linked to a range of health problems, including chronic pain and heart disease, so reducing inflammation may be beneficial for overall health.
3. Supporting the immune system: The polysaccharides in Lion's Mane have also been shown to have immune-boosting effects. This may help to prevent infections and support overall immune function.
4. Improving digestive health: Some studies have suggested that Lion's Mane may have beneficial effects on the digestive system, including reducing inflammation and improving the balance of gut bacteria.
5. Supporting cardiovascular health: Lion's Mane may have potential benefits for heart health, including reducing inflammation, improving cholesterol levels, and reducing the risk of blood clots.

My Shiitaki Mushroom logs fruited already this year. Not very many but a few good sized ones. I just got to them a little bit late. I inoculated a lot of these over the winter that I plan on having available for purchase at the farmer's market.

Finally got my first flush of yellow oysters or Pleurotus citrinopileatus. I knew they were usually a smaller oyster mushroom but I wasn't exactly expecting this. They're tiny mushrooms in a really big cluster.
