The Mycology class came by today and we had loads of fun talking mushrooms.

Professor Keith Kisselle teaches Ecology mostly and was gifting with teaching a 1month course on Mycology where the students get to experiment with all sorts of mycological activities in the class.

Today, we had class outside at where Jordan went over growing techniques for the small specialty cultivator.

We hope more students get into growing mushrooms, just one tour at a time.

Had the pleasure of having Mr. Bob Whitney out at the farm today.

He was nice enough to stop by and grill us on our Organic Systems Plan and look for holes in our processes that don't align with Organic practices as well as all of our inputs into our substrate mixes.

In his words, "I'm having a tough time finding any!"

We're always looking for ways to add value to our product and being uncompromising quality to the people that choose to support us.

We're been wanting to get Organic Certified for a long time. We're now at a point where we are confident will be.

No, we don't plan on raising prices... just quality and value.

🍄 Free spent Substrate! Send this post to your favorite gardening buddy.

🍄 SMS or Spent Mushroom Substrate is an excellent addition for all types of composting and garden beds.

🍄 Use it for mulching, mix them into a working compost pile, and even add it into existing potted plants for extra mycelial networks to absorb nutrients.

👀 These are available at the farm in Arlington on a First Come, First Serve basis and are self-loaded.

🛻 We do recommend bring pickup truck or lining the trunk of your car because they still have moisture from our fruiting rooms.

🕓 These are available every Tuesday and Thursday.

This Saturday is the first weekend in a while that we will have mushrooms out at Cowtown Farmers Market.

When the cold weather shifts, it does a few things.

People start cooking heavier dishes.... The summer veggies change dramatically... Restaurants change into their Fall menus.... And our grow rooms get colder.

This causes a delay in our Expected Harvest Dates.

With a weekly crop rotation, it can throw a few things off.

But not to worry! We're coming out to Fort Worth this Saturday with mushrooms and plenty of mushrooms Extracts.

We will have:
• Oysters
• Lion's Mane
• Coral Tooth
• Chestnuts
Mixed Specialties
and
• 9 Different Mushroom Tinctures that are really good for boosting the body's immune system.

So come out and say hi! The weather should be glorious!

Cowtown is open from 8am to 12pm and the address is tagged so save this post for later!

We had a surpise visit from Chef Marlon and who came thru on his way back from Austin.

What a great guy! A freaking hustler to no end with an amazing passion for blowing minds with vegan food. He also looks like he should play for the Cowboys.

He's got an awesome food truck in Austin that he outfitted from a 1973 Winnebago!

If you're in the Austin area and just love good food (you don't have to be vegan), he's a Chef you have to visit.

It was a pleasure meeting with you Chef and we look forward to the next time.

Thanks for the spotlight Seth Bodine & Fort Worth Report, we appreciate it!

“So really, I grow three things. I grow mushrooms, I grow my team and then I grow myself. For anybody wanting to have their own business, you have to have some kind of constant education.”

Texas Fungus grows more than 500 pounds of mushrooms weekly in Arlington and Fort Worth. The mushrooms are sold wholesale to hotels and restaurants.

If you missed our recent post about how mushrooms can surprisingly look like the part of the body they support (in this case the brain, if it isn't obvious ;), check out our blog post below all about the AMAZING Lion's Mane 🍄
Spoiler Alert: It pretty much does everything!
