Who we are
About the farm
We are a family-run, agro-ecological mushroom micro-farm in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, growing gourmet and medicinal mushrooms (oyster, lion's mane, shiitake, chestnut, maitake, reishi) without chemicals and doing every step ourselves, from the first mycelium agar plate to harvest, with no imported fruiting blocks. Our oysters grow on pasteurised straw, shiitake on hardwood logs and the other species on sawdust from our family's sawmill and wheat bran, in an unheated underground bunker; the spent substrate becomes compost and vermicompost. We sell fresh mushrooms directly, through the Open Food Network and the Dean Forest Food Hub, and monthly at Newent Saturday Market, and dried mushrooms, tinctures, grain spawn and inoculated logs in our online shop.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
