Our Chicken of the Woods is a first-generation Laetiporus isolate, the sulfur-yellow to orange bracket fungus that's one of the most recognizable mushrooms in North America. Harvested young, its dense, fibrous flesh is one of the few that truly works as a whole-cut meat substitute.

Our Golden Morel was cloned in May from a vigorous wild fruiting body found near our Illinois lab, then isolated in-house. It's the most aggressive morel strain we've worked with, and because it came from a cold-winter region, it's already adapted to the seasonal cycle morels need. Like every morel, it's an outdoor-bed project, not an indoor crop.

Our King Trumpet is a first-generation Pleurotus eryngii isolate, the largest oyster species and the only one grown for its stem. It forms thick, dense white stems topped with small tan caps, and a well-grown fruit can top two pounds.

Sliced into rounds and seared, it's the most convincing meat...

Our Pink Lion's Mane is a wild-cloned Hericium erinaceus that we isolated for one trait: a soft rose blush on the fruit bodies. It grows exactly like standard Lion's Mane, with the same cascading spines, hardwood appetite and fast colonization, and we run it in limited batches.

Our White Enoki is a first-generation isolate of a white Flammulina velutipes cultivar selected for small caps and long, pale stems. It colonizes in about ten days, then asks for something no other species does: you shape the fruit yourself with cold, darkness and trapped CO2.

Our Yellow Reishi is a first-generation Ganoderma curtisii isolate, a Reishi native to the southeastern United States rather than Asia. It forms kidney-shaped caps banded in gold and amber, and it's the rarest Ganoderma we carry.
