Mushroompeople guarantees its mushroom spawn to be
healthy and vigorous or your money back.
We became interested in mushrooms out of our concern for the global environment, and particularly the need for more forests to reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and reverse global warming. But mushrooms also have a wide range of health and nutritional benefits.
In the Orient, they are also valued as an aphrodisiac.
It is our goal to provide consistently high-yielding mushroom spawn, good advice, and reliable overnight service. While we have focused primarily on farmers who grow Lentinula (shiitake), we also offer:
A lot of people get started with a kit that comes in a plastic bag and consists of
a pre-inoculated sawdust log or patch. We don't sell those. We don't think they are
worth your time or money. You'd be better off buying mushrooms in the grocery store,
usually for about half the price.
The shiitake starter kits we sell are pre-inoculated oak dowels that a grower hammers into
hardwood logs. Consider the relative value. A typical kit from the Brand X catalog costs $20
to $30 and produces 1 pound of mushrooms in 2-3 weeks. That is $20 to 30 per pound.
In most places gourmet organic mushrooms will be cheaper at the store.
A Mushroompeople starter kit costs $19 (we pay shipping!) and will inoculate 10 logs
and produce its first crop in 4 to 6 months. Over 4 years, it will produce from 100
to 300 pounds of mushrooms. Less than $5 per pound!
WHEN TO ORDER SHIITAKE SPAWN: To assure a full selection and timely
delivery, it is best to order the shiitake spawn 3 to 4 months in
advance of use. Small orders will usually be filled within 24 hours, as
long as stocks last. TELEPHONE ORDERS: Charges to MasterCard and VISA
accounts are welcome. COD may be available, except on spawn, specialty
soils or orders outside the continental U.S. Phone or Fax (1-800)
FUNGI-96 (1-800-386-4496). Maybe you'd like to use our ORDER FORM. CUSTOMER SERVICE:
Inquiries regarding orders, shipping, or billing should be directed to
(615) 964-2200 between 10 AM and 5 PM weekdays. Please give your invoice
number or date of sale when making inquiries. SHIPMENT: We attempt to turn
around all orders within 24 hours. We ship parcels by UPS whenever
possible. Parcels may go Priority Mail to ensure fast delivery. Please
provide both your street address and your post office box number (if you
have one), and your telephone number. Shipping and handling is paid
(unless price quoted is FOB Summertown) in continental U.S. only.
Hawaii, Alaska, and foreign orders estimate 40% shipping and handling
fee. There may be additional charges for heavy or foreign packages,
depending on actual shipping costs. Freight is charged on all COD
orders. AVAILABILITY: Inventories are planned several months in
advance to be more than adequate. Nonetheless because of the nature of
producing live cultures, circumstances can and do change. With your
permission, we will substitute a comparable strain, if available.
RETURNS: Merchandise (except for spawn) may be returned for credit only,
less shipping and handling. No cash refunds. RE-ISOLATION: Our
products are sold for the purpose of producing mushrooms. Re-isolation
or further propagation of any of our strains is prohibited without the
express written consent of Mushroompeople.
PAYMENT: Remittance in the form of money order, credit card information
(MasterCard and VISA accepted), or check should accompany all orders. As
we are a cash business, credit card accounts will be charged when the
order is placed, not when the goods are shipped. Personal checks may
take 14 working days to clear. Foreign checks may take 60 days. Prices
are subject to change without notice. All sales are final. DISCLAIMER

How To Order
GUARANTEE: We guarantee our spawn is healthy and vigorous, capable of
producing the strain you specified under the proper growing conditions.
Since mushroom production from spawn depends on many factors beyond our

with any of our products, defective on receipt, we will gladly replace
them, however, replacements must be authorized by us.
