About the Farm
Background
Established in 2020 in the south suburbs of Chicago, Thrive Mushrooms is known for its dedication to producing high-quality oyster mushrooms. The farm also offers other varieties such as king trumpet, lion’s mane, chestnut, pink oysters, reishi, and shiitake mushrooms. They participate in local farmers markets and have a commitment to donating a portion of their proceeds to the 'Autism Speaks' organization.
Practices
Thrive Mushrooms focuses on producing fresh, delicious, and responsibly grown gourmet mushrooms. They emphasize the health benefits of mushrooms, including their ability to promote good sleep, provide essential nutrients, and help with focus and memory. The farm ensures that their mushrooms are packed with fiber, nutrients, vitamins, and antioxidants, while being low in carbs and high in protein.
The Rest
Thrive Mushrooms offers complimentary delivery to local restaurants and grocery chains. They are active in local summer farmers markets such as Tinley and Frankfurt Farmer's Markets and are planning to join the Hyde Park Farmer's Market. The farm highlights the various health benefits of mushrooms, including their role in increasing Vitamin D and promoting blood sugar regulation.
