Lions Mane, Oyster, Black Pearl, Chestnut, King Oyster, And Pioppino? What these are mushrooms? Yes! And all grown in a small Interior Alaska community of Ester.
Boreal Woods is Interior Alaska's only year-round mushroom farm, growing a wide variety of gourmet and medicinal mushrooms for the Fairbanks community. Meet Matthew Meares who started this venture as a family project with his two young sons. His interest in year around farming and a desire to provide healthy nutritious food year has led him to produce 10-15 varieties of mushrooms.
Matt is a young, energetic and forward thinking farmer, who has taken mushroom growing to new levels in a vertical farm in a large building on his property in Ester Alaska. The mushrooms he grows are beautiful, different than those found in grocery stores and good for you.
