Mushrooms are a rich, low calorie source of fiber, protein, and antioxidants. They may also mitigate the risk of developing serious health conditions, such as Alzheimer’s, heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
Mycologic
Headed by veteran mushroom cultivator and researcher Barton Acres, MycoLogic brings the finest of gourmet and medicinal mushrooms right into Kiwi homes and backyards.
“There are a lot of unique and delicious fungi that are hard to find in the shops or in the wild,” says Bart. “That’s why we provide the grow kits and advice that people need to grow a diverse range of fungi at home. You can’t get any fresher than a mushroom picked in prime condition from a log, garden patch, or grow kit right at the back door, then taken straight into the kitchen to prepare a meal.”
Exotics By South
From humble beginnings in Hunua in 2009, Exotics by South is a family endeavour inspired by founder Phil Matheson’s world travels where he first saw oyster mushrooms being grown on coffee grounds. “It’s not too many years since Kiwis viewed mushrooms with a bit of suspicion,” says Phil. “But today, with global travel commonplace, people are experiencing – and enjoying – new tastes, textures, and flavours abroad which is impacting on the food scene here. We’re more experimental and open to new foods, evidenced on supermarket shelves.”
