Our turkey tails are grown in northern Vermont using a unique and highly efficient method of cultivation.
This method produces beautiful mushrooms that are proven to contain high levels of key active compounds, such as triterpenoids and beta-glucans.
[Independently tested at 50.8% (1-3)(1-6)beta-glucan content and 77.6 IU/g vitamin D2.] Analysis here.

They are high-quality because:
- The mushrooms are grown on hardwood-based substrate. Hardwood trees, like maple, beech, ash and birch, are their natural food source. [Research is showing that "Mushrooms grown on natural substrates have the precursors to produce important secondary metabolites such as triterpenoids".]
- They develop to maturity outdoors under the natural elements of sun, wind and rain.
- At harvest, they are fully separated from the substrate. The finished product is pure mushroom tissue.
- They are dried in the sun, pore-side up, to increase vitamin D content.
