Experience the ease of homegrown mushrooms with the Mushroom Kit – Lion's Mane, a USDA-certified organic countertop kit that’s perfect for beginners. This kit makes it simple to cultivate your own lion’s mane mushrooms—just open the box, cut an “X” in the plastic, spray it with water 2-3 times daily. Watch as clusters of shaggy, plump mushrooms start to appear. It’s a fun and sustainable way to grow fresh, nutritious mushrooms right at home.

Lion’s mane mushrooms are prized for their unique texture, savory flavor, and versatility in the kitchen. They can be sautéed, dried, made into extracts, or even steeped as a tea, making them a deliciously diverse ingredient. Many people enjoy them as a meat substitute, and their taste makes them ideal for dishes like meatless crab cakes. Additionally, lion’s mane is a popular choice in functional foods.  Renowned for its brain-supporting compounds, which add to its appeal as a culinary and medicinal mushroom.

This best-selling kit is known for producing generous flushes of beautiful, creamy white mushrooms when provided with the right humidity. With continued care, you may get multiple harvests, giving you even more value from each kit. We encourage you to nurture your kit for additional growth to enjoy its bounty several times over.

Lion’s mane mushrooms thrive in high humidity, so water generously to prevent drying out and ensure robust growth. As a tropical species, they may require extra misting in low-humidity climates, and the use of a humidity tent can help if your mushrooms are drying out too quickly.

Your kit contains an amended sawdust block fully colonized with mycelium, which may appear as a soft, white coating—don’t worry, it’s entirely normal and an indication of healthy mushroom growth. This beginner-friendly kit is an easy way to bring farm-fresh, organic mushrooms to your kitchen and enjoy the satisfaction of growing them yourself.
