Grow Morel Mushrooms in Your Backyard

Gourmet Mushroom Products
10/25/2005 12:20:36 PM

The Morel Habitat Kit was developed so everyone could enjoy growing their own morels in their own backyard and have a personal supply of fresh morel mushrooms to eat each spring.

The Morel Habitat Kit is not designed for commercial production of morel mushrooms, but it will supply an individual with pounds of morel mushrooms in a garden area as small as 4 - 5 sq. ft.

Morel Habitats are perennial and may be started any time your soil is workable - Spring, Summer, Fall and even Winter (in areas with a mild climate) . Morel Habitats may be started in any type of soil and have produced morel mushrooms in all areas of the United States that have a definite transition from winter to spring. We provide spawn (seed) which contains our unique morel strains and will allow you to seed a back yard Morel Habitat which can produce pounds of morels each year in a properly maintained four foot by four foot area. Typically, only a few pounds of morel mushrooms are found the first spring it produces; the next year provides the best crops, and crops may tend to get smaller in subsequent years; it may take two seasons to start producing.

The Morel Habitat is ecologically sound and actually allows you to improve the environment by recycling biodegradable material instead of adding it to already overburdened land and sea sites. You may already have all the materials necessary to create a Morel Habitat and cultivate morels in your own backyard, and everybody with a yard has most of the materials needed to create and maintain the Morel Habitat. Complete instructions for preparing and maintaining your Morel Habitat are included.

GMHP has been providing unique Mushroom growing kits and other quality products to the public for 15 years.

Certified Organic: Mushrooms, Mushroom Spawn, and Mushroom Nutraceuticals Grown by Gourmet Mushrooms Certified Organic by Quality Assurance International (QAI).
