We were first time buyers. We bought a selection of different mushrooms and were impressed by the range, weight & packaging options and the ease of using the website. The pricing was affordable and the products were received, as ordered, in good condition and promptly. 5 stars - we will use again.

I was amazed how quickly my order arrived! Wow! I have been buying dried mushrooms in Spain but Merit Mushrooms has such an amazing variety (most of which I have not heard of, but I am certainly going to try all of them!). I stumbled upon this company when I was buying fresh Lion's Mane in Planet Organic, I am so happy I have discovered Merit Mushrooms.

I feel so lucky to have these guys on my doorstep. Amazing selection of fresh mushrooms at a very competitive price. My first order which I went and collected was for Lions Mane and Shitake mushrooms. Cristian had them waiting for me when I popped up to get them. A1 grade product which we enjoyed the next couple of days after collecting them. This is my first foray buying direct from a grower, I find it hard to imagine how much better it could be. I’ll be back in a couple of weeks for more.

Sustainable and Ecological Mushroom Cultivation

The substrates that we utilise are made from residues of what would have been burnt raw materials. By growing our mushrooms on these substrates, we are reducing the amount of carbon dioxide emissions associated with the discarding of such materials.

​

These transformed residues are excellent for mushroom cultivation as the powerful decomposing power of fungi breaks down this substrate and transforms it into a great fertiliser for soil.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MUSHROOMS

Since ancient times, people have learnt to select and eat mushrooms through ‘mycology’ – the study of fungi. With mushrooms being one of the earliest forms of life on Earth, knowing about them is crucial. Being master decomposers, mushrooms have been able to live and adapt to changing conditions on our planet and are the foundation to life as we know it. 

​

Without mushrooms, we wouldn't be where we are now.
