Jurassic Coast Mushrooms

Jurassic Coast Mushrooms, was set up by Andy & Sam through their shared love of mushrooms. Sam’s a mad keen grower with an eye for the arts, while Andy’s an engineer with a passion for foraging and bioprospecting.Initially founded to support the local community, restaurants and markets with fresh mushrooms and medicinal products..Fast forward 18months and we’ve now setup a spawn lab, largely dedicated to working with the genetics of species native to the UK. Our goal is to supply mushroom cultivators and home growers with our grain-spawn and cultures, nurtured from species we have cloned from the wild. With the genetics we’ve preserved we hope to further support native fungi of the UK, by spreading the native spores, reintroducing native cultures and looking after our most beautiful and rare fungal species. Find us at this year’s All Things Fungi Festival, supporting Mycopunks within their Myco Community Area, running cloning workshops. Also pop along to our trade stall where you’ll be able to browse our culture and spore library and plug your own log to take home with you.See you in the woods!
