Our story
Quiet rituals,
grown from the forest floor.
Growing up in the rugged mountains of Cape Town, The Mushroom Man found his passion early. But his heart truly ignited when, at the tender age of 11, he was introduced to the captivating world of foraging, guided by none other than the legendary Gary Goldman.
Known for his contributions to the Netflix documentary Fantastic Fungi and his numerous books on South African foraging, through him The Mushroom Man learned the secrets of finding rare mushrooms and understanding the diverse ecosystem they thrived in.
Now a successful entrepreneur, he has channeled his devotion into a groundbreaking endeavor: seven expansive warehouses in Wellington dedicated to mushroom cultivation. Within these facilities, some of the best experts in mycology cultivate exquisite mushrooms, including enormous oyster mushrooms, each as large as the hand of an adult woman. Chefs across the culinary world rave about the rich, chewy texture and robust flavor of these mushrooms, elevating them as an unparalleled vegan meat alternative.

"The Reishi tincture has quietly become the most important part of my evening. I sleep deeper, and I wake calmer."
"Lion's Mane in the morning, coffee an hour later. My focus through long writing sessions is genuinely different."
