Where mushroom farms start

  • Batch tracking

    Every block traced from inoculation to harvest

    Batches by species and grow room with start dates and expected flushes, so you know what is fruiting before chefs ask.

    • Batches by species and room
    • Expected flush dates
    • Yield per batch
    Inventory and lot tracking

  • Restaurant wholesale

    Chefs order from this week's harvest

    A wholesale list with pounds available by species, an order cutoff, and standing orders for the kitchens you supply every week.

    • Weekly availability by species
    • Order cutoffs before harvest
    • Standing orders for restaurants
    Wholesale ordering

  • Delivery

    One run for restaurants, markets and shares

    Restaurant drops, home deliveries and market loads planned as one route with windows sent to each stop.

    • Stops ordered by route
    • Delivery windows sent to kitchens
    • Packing list by stop
    Local delivery and routing

  • Online store

    Ship what keeps: dried, powders and grow kits

    Fresh sells local; dried mushrooms, powders and grow kits sell anywhere. A store that handles both, with local pickup for fresh.

    • Local pickup for fresh
    • Shipping for dried goods and kits
    • One store, two fulfillment rules
    E-commerce store setup

How it works

  1. Tell us what you make

    What you make and what you use now. A spreadsheet and a Square account is a fine answer.

  2. Get a short plan

    Keep this, replace that, connect these, and the cost.

  3. We set it up

    Setup and migration done for you. You approve before anything goes live.

  4. Run it or hand it off

    Take it from there yourself or keep us on for the upkeep.

A good fit if

  • You sell to restaurants and the order comes by text
  • Batches live on tape and a whiteboard
  • You want to sell dried mushrooms or grow kits online

Questions

What software do mushroom farms use?

Many small growers track batches in a spreadsheet or Airtable, take restaurant orders by text, and use Square at market. We put batches, orders and delivery on connected tools so the harvest and the orders match.

How do I sell mushrooms to restaurants?

Send chefs a weekly availability list by species with an order cutoff, deliver on set days, and offer standing orders. Consistent supply matters more to kitchens than the lowest price.

Can I ship fresh mushrooms?

Fresh mushrooms are perishable and most small farms sell them locally. Dried mushrooms, powders and grow kits ship well and are what most farms sell online.

Can my farm show up on Madeline's?

Madeline's maps independent farms on its makers map and lists makers that ship, such as dried mushroom and grow kit producers, on the marketplace.
