We’re Farming Fungi Again! Follow Our Grow on Social Media
After a long frigid winter, we are excited to announce that this spring at West Wolf Medicinals, we are farming fungi again! You can follow our growing efforts on social media where we share all — the good, the bad, and the ugly— of farming mushrooms. We film our contaminated jars of mycelium, dried Petri dishes, and moldy substrate. And how we go about building back up our spore collection and grow.
We know there's a lot of buzz around fungi farming right now, so learn more below and contact us today if you have any questions!

Fungi farming is a sustainable and earth-friendly industry that is gaining popularity due to its low impact on the environment compared to traditional farming methods. Unlike livestock or crop farming, fungi require less water, space, and energy to grow, making them a perfect solution for environments where these resources are limited. At West Wolf Medicinals, we began farming mushrooms because our farm is small and we wanted a dense crop to sell. Our fungi farming practices focus on using only organic and sustainable methods to grow delicious gourmet mushrooms.
Experience Optimal Health with Medicinal Mushrooms
Medicinal mushrooms have been used for centuries by many cultures throughout the world for their numerous health benefits. Recent scientific studies have shown that fungal fruiting bodies contain significant amounts of antioxidants, vitamins, and other bioactive substances that can boost immunity, protect against chronic diseases, and improve cognitive function. At West Wolf Medicinals, we source a variety of medicinal mushrooms, such as chaga, reishi, and cordyceps, and we offer them in the form of mushroom-fruiting body extracts in our shop.
The Potential of Fungi Farming to Revolutionize the Food Industry
We farm mushrooms because we want to provide for our community another source of high-quality and nutrient-dense protein. Did you know that fungal biomass can be used to make various food products, such as vegan meat substitutes and protein bars? It can also be used to ferment and flavor food products, such as cheese and beer!
