Here on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula in the PNW, TONS of edible mushrooms grow and thrive natively in the old-growth forest surrounding our little farm resort-in-the-making.
We especially love lions mane for its mental health benefits, but they’re among the rarest shrooms, and hard to find.
We couldn’t rely on our beginner foraging skills to keep stocked with lions mane and other mushies, so we started researching “how to grow your own edible mushrooms”.
Simultaneously, a few months ago I finally finished brush clearing and cutting the first section of our new, creekfront trail, which will eventually span the whole property, and be roughly a 1/4-mile long.
Once we learned how easy and fun it is to grow mushrooms, we became hooked on the idea of transforming said trail into a living breathing alleyway of mushrooms—Everland’s Mushroom Alley. The vision is for a trail a with sneaky hidden edible mushrooms—lions mane, blue oyster, pink oyster, Namiko, king black, golden enoki, chestnut, shitake, wine caps—for our patrons to pick and enjoy via pick-your-own-mushroom foraging. The business mode will be something like—5 bucks for a bucket, $15/pound for any mushrooms you pick.
What do you think? It’s not the traditional method for stacking/growing innoculated mushroom logs, but we like it even better!
If you’re keen to try growing yourself, North Spore is hands down the easiest and best online resource.  you can learn everything you need to know for a thorough education on growing and harvesting your own mushrooms on their website, and they’ll help you pick the best mushrooms and growing method for your environment.
For a longer-term project like the boom boom wall, inoculated logs are an amazing way to go that will continue to flush for 5+ years.
If you’re going for a quicker turnaround and just want to see some mushrooms popping in your garden, go with North Shore’s plant and grow mushroom blocks. These are blocks of sawdust that has already been colonized by my psyllium, so they’re ready to start flushing in as little as a week. All you have to do is pop them in the ground cover them with detritus, make sure they stay moist, and less than two weeks later, like clockwork, the shroomies start pumping!
Follow along to see mushroom alley come to life in Info, and to see us expand the Boom Wall the full length of the trail!
If you are inspired to try growing mushrooms yourself, we’d really appreciate if you used our link to buy them. We get a small kickback for every Northport product we sell, and as aspiring content creators currently below the poverty line, we need every scent we can get!
Thanks for watching, I hope it helps. Stay silly and keep those nails dirty.

Sooo 🤬'n 🪼!
I want to grow mushrooms too
This is so cool❤
Great vídeo!
So you like shrooms wow lovely place
This is an awesome project! I do wonder about the nature impact of putting mycelium blocks in the ground. Any thoughts?
I feel like this configuration with soil on one side could be better but thats just a feeling.
I just know they have shrooms lol
“Butt fuck it” we ball
Wow what a beautiful way to incorporate everything into the landscape! Swell done!
are you building all this with the intent on renting out the cabins? not very environmentally friendly of you, gotta say. People will destroy your mushroom fairy trail in no time, have garbaged scattered about, etc etc etc.
Capitalist hippies are one the funniest most hypocritical sub group of people
I bet you both smell horrible
What if you live in the Texas panhandle with no shade , no humidity and a lot of heat ???
Lol
Accent on the second syllable
