About Us
At Luna’s Mushrooms, we believe that good food and good health begin with the earth.
What started as a small dream — a few bags of substrate, a humid room, and a deep curiosity about the quiet intelligence of fungi — has grown into a mission to reconnect people with nature through mushrooms.
We’re not a factory farm. We’re a local, small-batch mushroom company built on patience, care, and community. Every mushroom we grow — from the delicate lion’s mane to the hearty oyster — is cultivated by hand right here in Champaign-Urbana, with love and respect for the process.
🌿 Our Story
Luna’s Mushrooms began as a simple experiment — a way to grow food that feels alive. What we found was something deeper: a rhythm of growth that mirrors life itself. From the first sprout of mycelium to a full canopy of fruiting bodies, we learned that good things grow when they’re cared for slowly.
That philosophy guides everything we do. We’ve built our farm to reflect balance — between innovation and tradition, between passion and patience. Every harvest is small-batch, every kit hand-assembled, every supplement carefully crafted.
🍄 Our Mission
Our mission is to cultivate wellness, sustainability, and wonder — one mushroom at a time.
We want to make mushrooms accessible to everyone:
-
Fresh gourmet mushrooms for your table.
-
At-home grow kits for curious minds.
-
Natural supplements for focus, energy, and mental clarity.
We’re here to remind the world that mushrooms aren’t just food — they’re living art, natural medicine, and a symbol of how life thrives when connected to the earth.
