Growing mushrooms on logs offers a sustainable and rewarding way to cultivate mushrooms over the long term. This method utilizes hardwood logs inoculated with plug spawn—small wooden dowels infused with mushroom mycelium—that gradually colonize the log. Once fully colonized, the log becomes a natural substrate for the mushrooms, producing reliable harvests year after year. This approach mimics the fungi’s natural growth environment, requiring minimal maintenance while providing consistent yields and a connection to nature’s cycles.

Our Outdoor Log Starter Kits include everything you need to get started – just source your own freshly cut logs using the species guide for each mushroom we offer and you’re ready to go.
