Far out with Far West Fungi this week!  We are stoked that our mushroom farm partners at Far West Fungi are supplying us with an abundance of shiitake mushrooms which we are throwing in your farm boxes this week. If you’d like to learn more about our mushroom farm partnership check out our post on Far West Fungi !

Although mushrooms are grown year round, they are most abundant (and tastiest) in the fall due to an overall increase of moisture in the air. Shiitake mushrooms are an excellent source for copper and zinc, while giving your immune system that extra boost it needs as you prepare for the colder winter months. 

Also up on the blog this week, we’ve got a stellar recipe for Shiitake Cream of mushroom soup. With the added kick of lemon juice and a touch of thyme, this recipe is surely one we recommend trying! got Too much going on this week and want to save these shiitakes for later? raw shiitakes don’t freeze well! However, after a quick sauté and thrown in an airtight container or bag, they’ll keep their delicious flavor and texture for up to 2 months!
