With almost 8 years growing mushrooms commercially under our belt, we’ve learned a thing or two about growing mushrooms and running a farm.

$150 for the first hour (pro-rated for shorter durations) and $100/hr thereafter. We strive to make it very worth your while. If our eager 2014 selves consulted with our current selves, we’d have saved time, effort and lost profit worth 1000x the investment in consultation fee. There are many great farmers out there

Some quick background on how we do things. We grow 11 varieties in 2 growrooms: King Trumpet, Maitake, Chestnut, Pioppino, Enoki, Lions Mane, Blue Oyster, Black Pearl Oyster, Golden Oyster, Shiitake, and Reishi. As of early 2022, we average 750lb/wk plus sell 800lb of grow bags a week to other farms. We run a CSA, sell to restaurants, retail, farmers market. We make our own blocks. We finetune “masters mix” to meet the specific needs of each species. We grow seasonally, we each work five days a week, we use wheely shelves, we use both high-pressure-misting system and Aquafog, we don’t ignore blocks when they’re incubating, we embrace loose razor blades and hand-misters. We manage customers and inventory without software. We run our own website and instagram.

There are other farms out there doing great work that offer exceptional consultation. It’s always advisable to get more than one opinion. But, word of caution: if you want valuable information about running a mushroom farm, make sure that whomever you are consulting with is an actual experienced and successful farmer, not just someone who sells mushroom gear or pumps out content. \
