Fresh mushrooms from our farm in Amherst, to your table
Pioppino aka black poplar mushrooms (Agrocybe aegerita)
Our farm is a quiet promise to care for these 52 acres, preserve the wetlands, and keep the Big Red Barn alive for generations.
Solar panels and geothermal keep us in tune with the land, while our mushrooms grow, in a way that is both sustainable and unique. This is a project from the heart, guided by gratitude and hope.
Taste what it means to give back — one bite at a time, with our sustainably cultivated mushrooms.
