Learn more about burying ‘Plant & Grow’ Garden Blocks
Burying myceliated blocks of sawdust is a cost-effective and beginner friendly way to grow mushrooms in your garden. Instead of spreading spawn out over a bed of woodchips, you can have mushrooms grow directly from a block. This method is faster, more reliable, and practically fool-proof. All it requires is a shady space in your garden and consistent moisture. In as little as 7 days you’ll have mushrooms sprouting directly from your garden.
Learn more about growing in beds
Mushroom beds are perfect for cultivating a variety of mushrooms, such as Wine Cap, Oyster, Almond Agaricus, and Blewit. These species thrive in beds, and each has its own set of preferences for substrates and environmental conditions. Bed cultivation also makes use of shadier areas in your garden that other plants might not tolerate, turning them into productive mushroom-growing zones. By integrating mushroom beds into your garden, you can improve soil health, increase biodiversity, and enjoy a steady, sustainable food source for months to come.
Learn more about log cultivation
Log cultivation is an incredibly sustainable method of growing mushrooms. You don’t need synthetic fertilizers, artificial lights, or plastic trays—just logs and mushroom spawn. This eco-friendly approach not only provides a natural source of protein and nutrients for your meals but also benefits the broader ecosystem. Mushrooms support beneficial organisms like pollinators, wildlife, and soil microbes, while enriching your soil and improving the health of your entire garden. It’s a simple, sustainable, and rewarding way to boost your garden’s productivity and create a healthier, more resilient environment.
