I'm setting up now and have a bunch of fresh mushrooms. The weather is likely to shut us down early. Get here early!

We are gearing up for TOMORROW'S farmers market from 9️⃣ am to 1️⃣ pm‼️ And have a great lineup‼️
We are expecting some 🌦 showers mid morning so get there when we open to avoid the rain. ⚠️Keep 👀 posted on our page to see if we close early - weather pending

This has me excited.

An upcoming Space X missing will test growing mushrooms in space to determine their viability as a long term food source in space.

Described as the “perfect space crop,” the nutritious and ready-to-eat fungus could be a key stepping stone toward fueling crew members during long-term spaceflight

Big thank you to Wild Peach Market, Belly Grub, and the community for the fun evening. I got some great loot while I was there.

Finally returning to Wild Peach. I've been looking forward to it.

Belly Grub has agreed to sauté some of our fresh Italian oysters for me to top one of their burgers. Go check em out and stop by this Saturday to see the burger for yourself before I gobble it up.

Detailing the workhorse of my grow operation. I'm looking at replacing it this year with something more efficient. This thing's been running for 4 years, almost non-stop.

My options for replacement/improvement range from $1k-$7k with a replacement in kind or full mini-split after insulating my finished, uninsured garage.

What do you think I should do?

The beginnings of shepherds pie with fresh chestnut mushrooms. It's about to smell bonkers, and I apologize to anyone who stops by.

Poured a few more plates today using that blue agar I was preparing yesterday.

Now, to go harvest some more fresh mushrooms.

It's time to make some plates. This time, I figured a bit of color would be fun.

Fresh chestnut and Golden oyster mushrooms available, $10 per 1/2 lbs. Co tact me to order. Local pickup only, near Pearland, TX.

Just placed an order with for my summer crop of mushrooms. Which ones have you tried and which ones are you interested in?

Personally, I enjoy attempting to grow new varieties. This years new variety for me is Branched and PoHu oyster mushrooms. You'd think by looking at them they would have the same texture and taste, but you'd be wrong. Each mushroom is wildly different when it comes to taste and texture and I'm looking at discovering these two new ones.

I'll be making grow kits too!

There will be vendors selling plant starters at Old Pearland Farmers Market, and a great way to support healthy plant growth is to mix in our Garden Gold mushroom compost.

We compost our gourmet mushroom substrate after mushrooms are harvested and let mother nature do her thing before bagging it up for your garden.

A little goes a long way. We recommend 1 part Garden Gold to 5 parts soil.

Oh and it's only $10. See you tomorrow.

Mushrooms as batteries? Yes please.

The living battery does not produce much electricity, but it could power sensors in remote regions, for example.

Stopped by the today at LA Fitness and walked away with some nice loot.
