Grow your own mushrooms! The Lions Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is a tasty gourmet and medicinal mushroom, natural to deciduous forests. Delicious as a saute or in soups, stews & stirfrys. Research suggests eating lions mane mushrooms can help the human brain & nervous system to regenerate cells. Our hardwood fruiting blocks are innoculated and allowed to partially myceliate prior to shipping. Watch as the mycelium cultivate your block, then slice open the wrap to allow the mushrooms to grow. Pick and eat as they develop. Delicious, succulent, and perfectly fresh.
