Grown in Australia: Mushrooms are highly absorbent. They will absorb the heavy metals and toxins from the environment in which they are in. Thus if they are grown in polluted areas or with unclean water they can be dangerous to consume.
Superior drying process: Our Lion's Mane mushrooms are not just grown in the pollution-free Yarra Valley (Victoria); but they are also freeze dried in Victoria. Freeze drying is the most superior form of drying. It allows for a much more nutrient dense product that is almost identical to the fresh form of the mushroom. The cost is far greater and thus many imported Lion's Mane mushrooms are spray dried.
Contains the potent mycelium: Our Lion's Mane includes the mycelium of the mushroom (the "roots" of the mushroom below the surface) not just the fruiting body. World-renowned mycologists like Paul Stamets believe a lot of the benefits of Lion's Mane are contained in the mycelium.

3 Good reasons to buy Australian grown mushrooms?

This seems expensive? Actually Lion's Mane is 90% water so it takes 10kg to produce just 1kg of dried Lion's Mane. So in effect, you are getting 10x the value but without the water content.
Store away from direct sunlight. Always keep sealed. Comes in a resealable bag.
“In my scientific opinion, mushroom products not incorporating mycelium are at a decided disadvantage”
- Paul Stamets World Expert on medicinal mushrooms (read this blog post to find out why we always incorporate mycelium into our products)
The dried Lion's Mane can be brewed into tea, used in cooking or eaten as is.
