It's mushrooms galore in this no dig bed! Truly popping off and during a heatwave no less! Let me know in the comments what you think they are!!!

I've been asked to remove both cordyceps militarism tinctures for pets and turkey tail tinctures for pets from sale on the website which is a bit of a bummer. The novel food legislation may seem Draconian but it's my duty to stay on the right side of it. Trading standards reason that as I've previously extracted these mushrooms for human consumption, people might take it upon themselves to consume their pets supplements instead. I obviously tell people that this isn't allowed but this isn't enough.

What now?... They're no longer going to be available. Few options available but none preferred.

Should I reformulate with cordyceps senesis instead? I'll have to purchase the raw ingredients from abroad which doesn't exactly fit my vibe and intentions but it might be that needs must.

Should I create a wholely separate pet supplement company, specifically to sell these extracts for your pets?

Should I just pack it in with these species and focus my efforts on my most popular mushrooms? You guys order a lot more lions mane and Reishi so maybe it's time to double down on what works.

What do you think? I'm genuinely interested to hear. If you're bummed out like me, drop us a "RIP" in the comments 😔🍄

Just had 2 more dumper truck loads of sub base delivered so now I've got 30 ton to make our new entranceway with. I need it strong enough to take the weight of the lorry which will carry my shipping container mushroom grow rooms onto the land. When I eventually open up to do events on the here this is where you'll arrive 🥰🍄

Sorry we’ve been a bit quiet on content recently!
Here’s another sneaky peak at the slow and steady process being made over at the farm.
It’s not a quick journey to off grid life but we are loving every step and hope you’ll enjoy watching us grow 🌱🍄

New and updated multi-mushroom tincture is in stock! 🍄

I've swapped the turkey tail out and replaced it with birch polypore that I foraged as I think it's a close alternative and has some amazing medicinal benefits!

Multi-blend tincture now contains:
* Lions mane (grown my me)
* Reishi (grown my me)
* Chaga (foraged from Scotland)
* Maitake (grown by me)
* Shiitake (grown by me)
* Birch polypore (foraged from Dartmoor)

All individually triple extracted using ultrasonic, water and pure organic alcohol, concentrated to 1:2.5 (1g of dried mushroom per 2.5ml) then mixed together in equal parts.

You can get one from my website... 🥰

Last year we were lucky enough to acquire some land and slowly but surely we are making it into a place we want to be full time. At the moment it’s a lot of ground work - but there are huge plans in the works and we are really excited for the future and to take you along with us!

Found some lovely looking oyster mushrooms growing from a Premier shop sign 🍄🤩

Perfect opportunity to clone it!

Once I've let these tissue sample grow out a bit on the agar, I'll transfer a bit onto another plate to make sure it's free of contamination, then I'll transfer a bit of that plate into liquid culture
Then expand the liquid culture onto grain, then the grain onto dowels and bulk substrate. Then the dowels will go into wooden logs and the bulk substrate into the fruiting room.

Bish bash bosh, you've got yourself infinite mushrooms 🍄😅

Native English reishi mushrooms.

We're spending the morning harvesting reishi, started off by choosing some choice mushrooms from the grow room to then dust off the spores. Reishi spores are medicinally active and contain different sort after compounds to the reishi fruiting body. I dont usually harvest them as you don't get that much spores for the effort of collecting them. Our focus is on the fruiting bodies as that's when the majority of the medical research has been focused.

In Asia they optimise for spore collection by growing in polytunnels with each reish mushroom bring contained within it's own cardboard tube to keep all the spores together. Maybe next year I'll give that tech a try to we can get more spores.

Weve been dusting off the spores we've got and then chopping the mushrooms off the substrate to begin dehydrating them.

First step of making potent extract is ensuring you've got high quality mushrooms 🥰🍄
