The harvest index

Nine varieties, one farm.

The culinary lineup, straight from our grow rooms — how each mushroom cooks, and what it loves to be next to.

01

Shiitake

Lentinula edodes

Rich, umami-packed flavor. Great for grilling, roasting, stir-fries, broths, and risottos. Pairs well with garlic, ginger, soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, and noodles.

02

Lion’s Mane

Hericium erinaceus

Buttery and tender — great seared like scallops, in soups, or shredded for crab cakes and tacos. Pairs well with butter, garlic, thyme, miso, lemon, and creamy sauces.

03

Oyster

Pleurotus spp.

Tender and delicate with a silky texture. Perfect for stir-fries, soups, sautéing, or as a vegan “pulled pork.” Pairs well with garlic, shallots, white wine, lemon, cream, and thyme. We grow five different types of oysters: Blue Oyster, Black Pearl Oyster, Italian Oyster, Golden Oyster and Pink Oyster — ask us which we think would be best for your needs.

04

King Trumpet

Pleurotus eryngii

Meaty and satisfying — perfect for searing, grilling, roasting, or slicing into “scallops.” Great in stir-fries, pastas, and plant-based dishes. Pairs well with garlic, thyme, lemon, miso, soy sauce, and olive oil.

05

Chestnut

Pholiota adiposa

Sweet and aromatic with a warm, mild, cinnamon-like flavor. Great in stir-fries, soups, sautés, and rice or grain dishes — it keeps its crispness over high heat. Pairs well with garlic, ginger, scallions, tamari, sesame oil, and leafy greens.

06

Beech (Shimeji)

Hypsizygus tessellatus

Delicate and slightly crunchy, with a mild, nutty flavor. Great in soups, stir-fries, sautés, and grain bowls. Pairs well with miso, ginger, scallions, sesame oil, and light sauces.

07

Maitake

Grifola frondosa

Earthy and rich. Great in soups, stir-fries, risottos, or roasted whole for a hearty centerpiece. Pairs well with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, miso, brown rice, and greens.

08

Golden Enoki

Flammulina velutipes

Delicate and slightly crisp. Great in soups, hot pots, stir-fries, or simply grilled. Pairs well with miso, dashi, ponzu, scallions, tofu, and sesame.

Cluster of golden enoki mushrooms
09

Pioppino

Agrocybe aegerita

Firm and velvety, with a deep, nutty, savory flavor. Holds its bite in pastas, risottos, braises, and sautés. Pairs well with butter, garlic, white wine, thyme, cream, and fresh pasta.
