Tasting notes

Delicate, faintly sweet, with a crab-like flavor and a dense, tender bite. The exterior crisps beautifully while the center stays succulent.

In the kitchen

Slice thick and sear in butter until deep gold on both sides, then salt at the end. Use in place of crab, chicken, or steak; it shreds well for tacos and “crab” cakes.

Freshness & delivery

Cut to order the morning of dispatch, never from cold storage. Fairfield pickup and North Jersey delivery. Keep refrigerated in a paper bag and enjoy within the week for peak flavor and texture.

From Our Farm

Not a warehouse. A farm.

We grow on hardwood at 90 Clinton Rd in Fairfield, and it never leaves our hands until it reaches yours.

Farm pickup is available. Collect at the door. 90 Clinton Rd, Unit 2, Fairfield, NJ, Mon–Fri, 12–4pm. Directions and hours.

In the Kitchen

Three things and you're done.

  1. 1

    Keep them breathing

    Paper bag in the fridge, never sealed plastic, trapped moisture is what turns a good mushroom to a wet sponge.

  2. 2

    Hot pan, no crowding

    Get the pan properly hot and give them room. Crowded mushrooms steam instead of browning.

  3. 3

    Fat and salt at the end

    Butter or oil once the edges have colour, salt last. Salting early pulls the water straight back out.

In Their Words

What people say about the farm.

Outstanding quality and service from Innoculated Farms! I picked up my Lion's Mane mushrooms in person and was thoroughly impressed with the entire experience. The mushrooms were incredibly fresh and absolutely amazing - you can tell they take real care in handling their products. They offer great prices for these Lion's Mane mushrooms and the quality is unmatched. The mushrooms were handled with obvious care and the in-person pickup made it even better. Highly recommend Innoculated Farms to anyone looking for premium mushrooms. The quality speaks for itself, and I'll definitely be coming back for future orders. They've earned this 5-star review!

An amazing selection of fresh, organic mushrooms and microgreens. I'm now having these items most days of the week, my favorite being the lions mane mushrooms and powder which I include in my morning protein drink. Can't say enough about the quality of the mushrooms. Kudos to the folks at Innoculated for providing fresh produce to our community.

Got some lion's mane and the quality was just absolutely superb! You can tell the care that went behind from growing to harvesting the mushrooms! Made some rice bowls with them and you can tell that they were just super fresh! Caitlin was amazing with her customer service, and even threw in some tips and future recipe ideas. Looking forward to my next batch!

Absolutely the best mushrooms that you can buy!! In the great words of Denzel Washington in American Ganster: Innoculated “ that’s a brand name; like Pepsi, that’s a brand name. I stand behind it. I guarantee it.” Go get your mushrooms

Before You Buy

The honest answers.

How long will they keep?

They're cut the day you collect them, so you're starting from the freshest possible point. Keep them in the paper bag they come in, never sealed plastic, in the fridge. Most varieties hold their texture for about a week from cutting.

Do I need to wash them?

No, and please don't soak them. They're grown indoors on clean hardwood, not in soil. Brush off anything you can see, or wipe with a dry cloth. Mushrooms are mostly water already and washing only makes them harder to brown.

Can I freeze them?

Cook them first, then freeze. Raw mushrooms turn to mush on thawing because the cell walls rupture. Sautéed and frozen flat, they keep for months and go straight into a pan from frozen.

Is pickup really free?

Yes, free at the farm door, 90 Clinton Rd, Unit 2, Fairfield, Mon–Fri, 12–4pm, and it earns 2× loyalty points. No minimum, no handling fee.
