The shop is resting.
The mycelium never does.
We've been overwhelmed – in the best way – by your orders. While we pack every last kit with the care it deserves, online ordering is paused. It will be back soon.
Grown from a simple belief
Fungi can feed us, heal ecosystems, and teach us how to live more resiliently. Every kit we make puts that belief in your hands – no lab coat, no special equipment, just a window into the most underrated kingdom on Earth.
Growing Kits
Advanced, beginner-friendly gourmet mushroom kits with contaminant-tested cultures – for kitchens, classrooms, buckets, bags, and garden beds. Found in hundreds of boutiques and farm stores.
Education
Workshops, guided foraging hikes, school programs, and virtual classes that help homesteaders, chefs, and curious kids explore kingdom fungi safely and confidently.
Research
Watershed Revival – our initiative with The Henry Ford at Greenfield Village – uses native fungi to develop scalable methods for restoring the Rouge River and protecting the Great Lakes watershed.
Every kit funds the research
When you buy from The Mushroom Conservatory, you directly support ongoing work in mycoremediation, functional extraction, and the living archive of Michigan's native fungi.
