Located at the Upstate NY mountains and surrounded by virgin forests, our farm grows exclusively shiitake mushrooms. Traditional growing techniques and manual control of temperature and moisture allows us grow the most flavorful and nutritious shiitake in the north-east US.
“As with all mushrooms, the clear indication of quality is a veil that is still closed on the underside of the cap covering the spores. This shows freshness but also indicates if the mushrooms were rushed in growing.”

The secret of cultivating thick & flavorful shiitake lies in the Asian techniques mastered in Japan & China for thousands of years. Most US farms grow them in auto-conditioned steel buildings thus losing many natural qualities & flavor.
