🌋 Introducing the Caldera Phoenix!
Meet the newest addition to our farm, the Caldera Phoenix—a stunning Pleurotus pulmonarius strain we cloned from a wild specimen high in the Jemez Mountains this fall. This strain thrives on volcanic resilience, drawing inspiration from its rugged origins in New Mexico's breathtaking landscapes.

🍽️ Flavor Profile: Bold and Smoky
The Caldera Phoenix brings a flavor as unique as its backstory. Expect a rich, smoky essence with a delicate umami finish, perfect for sautés, soups, or even grilling. Its firm texture and earthy notes make it a versatile culinary delight, whether you're a gourmet chef or a kitchen experimenter.

🍄‍🟫 Farm-Grown Freshness
After months of careful cultivation, we’re proud to announce our first flushes are now fruiting! These vibrant clusters represent not just the beauty of mycology but also the spirit of innovation and connection to the wild.

📩 DM for details on where we'll be offering these mushrooms and how to get your hands on the genetics!
