Product pitched as ideal for soups, teas and savoury recipes
Kent organic mushroom farm Urban Farm-It has launched organically certified UK-grown dried Lion’s Mane mushrooms.
The product, which is available now for direct home delivery, features rich, earthy flavours and a caramelised appearance, thanks to a drying process that locks in taste and nutritional value.
The company says the dried mushrooms are ideal for soups, teas and savoury recipes, and bring an unparalleled depth of flavour and wellness benefits to every dish.
According to Urban Farm-It, each batch of Lion’s Mane mushrooms is harvested at peak maturity to ensure maximum flavour, and are dried, sliced and processed to maintain minimal moisture content for an extended shelf life.
The new products are packaged on-site using premium, eco-friendly packaging made from 100 per cent recyclable, sustainably sourced materials. They also come with an exclusive recipe book featuring Lion’s Mane recipes crafted by plant-based chef Derek Sarno and culinary medicine expert Nicky Elliot.
A 50g pack, sold direct from the Urban Farm-It website, is priced at £14.99, with wholesale pricing available upon request.
“For too long, UK consumers have had to rely on imported Lion’s Mane, often without knowing where or how it has been grown,” said Elliot Webb, founder of Urban Farm-It.
“At Urban Farm-It, we are proud to be the only farm in the UK cultivating this extraordinary mushroom to the highest organic standards. Now, people can enjoy premium-quality, homegrown Lion’s Mane with full confidence in its origin, sustainability, and purity.”
