R & D
{research and discovery}
Behind all of this mushroom business is a whole lot of research and a continual stream of discovery. Science that defines mycology is deeper than the ocean and more vast than the widest of distance. Each day as we enter the mushrooms' domain, we are completely and utterly mesmerized at the continual changes that occur, as well the incredible speed at which these fungal beings grow...but, above all, lessons that they teach us through their beauty.

THE "MUSHROOM SIDE" OF THE FARM
When most people think of mushrooms and how they grow, the image of a cool, damp and mossy forest floor comes to mind.
And, for many varieties that is the case.
Although mushrooms are considered by most to be a vegetable,
technically they are part of the kingdom called fungi. [fun-jhi]
But, for the gourmet side of mushrooms we have chosen a more sterile environment [a renovated shipping container] that ensures quality control and edible safety when it comes to consuming these mystical plants.
The mushroom farm container is outfitted with a sterile laboratory - inoculation room, where all of the science of growing mushrooms takes place. This where we grow our culture known as mycelium.
Next, the incubation room, which is regulated between 70 and 78 degrees, where the mushrooms colonize in their growing medium. This medium can consist of sterilized grain or hardwood substate.
The final 20 feet of growing space is designed to replicate the "autumnal environment" known as the fruiting room, in which the mushrooms emerge for harvest. In this space, the humidity is amplified and the temperature can range anywhere from 45-65 degrees.
