Note to our customers: You will notice that some of our spawn varieties, such as Tree oyster grain, Phoenix oyster sawdust spawn, and almost all of our Shiitake spawn, are not currently available. The reason is that we are having a surprising increase in orders for this time of year, and are temporarily out of those items. A new batch of all our spawn varieties should be ready by late February. Please visit us again at that time to place your order. See you then!
