Educational Fungi Experiences in Leeds

Super quick to produce a large crop

Loved growing my own mushrooms with this kit. The instructions were straight forward and I got 3 crops of mushrooms over the space of 5/6 weeks. Would make a great gift!

Very happy with the item and customer service from the team at YME. Will absolutely buy again.

Urban Foraging Workshop

I was recommended the kit by a friend who had already grown some mushrooms. The website was easy to use and informative. I was kept up to date about my order and it arrived quickly and well packaged. The instruction were very good, easy to follow and provided lots of information. I am now eagerly awaiting my first mushrooms.

Amazing thank you my dad loved it

I unfortunately completely messed up my order going to the highlands and had ticked ‘for collection’ I received a prompt call by a really friendly guy and it was sorted in minutes. The receiver is of the gift is delighted and can’t wait to get growing some mushrooms!

I bought this as a present for my husband’s birthday. He found it really interesting and really enjoyed it. We are watching our mushrooms with fascination as they grow

The foraging workshop was a great experience. In addition to being very informative, led by two expert guides, it was also very accessible and easy to follow for foraging newcomers like myself, as Niall and Elliot started with the basics and expounded in ways that were interesting, but not overwhelming to someone unfamiliar with the topic. They were both very friendly and helpful, and created a great experience. I would recommend this to anyone looking to learn more about the subject, or just get to know the natural world around them better!

An idyllic tour of edible plants in the wood!

I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop and will probably try to do the autumn one later this year. Since doing it I've been able to forage various bits for teas, flavoured water and salad toppings and I notice these plants around me more. Really enjoyed the discussions as we went round.

90 minutes of first class information, and my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I purchased two kits recently, a pearl oyster and a shitake mushroom. I know I will have to wait for the shitake but the oyster is amazing. One week after preparing the box (which was so easy), the first signs of mushrooms appeared. Each day they doubled in size and on the fifth day, I harvested my first 6 mushrooms. A day later and another crop is almost ready. They are truly a delicious mushroom and all the better for knowing that I grew them myself. I'd recommend this to any mushroom lover.
