Backyard Shiitake Installation

We install a productive shiitake mushroom laying yard at your home or business, bringing all materials and supplies (including the logs!). We will inoculate enough logs to provide your household with an abundance of shiitake from May through September. Your logs will fruit the season after inoculation, and should produce abundantly for 3-6 years.

Discover how to find and identify reishi, as well as other forest medicinals including turkey tail, chaga, artist’s conk, tinder conk, and red-belted polypore.
