Lion's Mane Mushroom Kit
Grow this hearty, mild mushroom as a "mane" dish!
Cauliflower-like in appearance, Lion's Mane Mushrooms deliver a mild shroomy flavor and a dense, hearty body. The textured forms absorb other flavors and seasonings readily and unite them with their mildly briney undertones. They grow easily indoors and are ready to harvest within 10 days of starting to care for them. Keep the kit tended for up to three months and you can expect an additional one to three flushes of mushrooms.
Mushroom kits must be opened and started soon after receipt, so be sure to order when you or the recipient will be both available to receive the shipment and poised to get started with the kit quickly.
Please note that mushroom kits can only ship via expedited methods and are therefore excluded from free shipping promotions.
