Kia ora, everyone!
I'm thrilled to share some exciting news with you โ we're now growing and offering the unique Pleurotus Australis, also known as the Brown Oyster mushroom. Native to Australia and New Zealand, these remarkable mushrooms showcase a stunning purple/lilac hue in their pin stage and mature into a rich, dark purple-brown color.
What sets them apart? These mushrooms are anything but ordinary โ boasting a thick, meaty texture, they typically reach the size of a bread and butter plate. Patience is key with the Brown Oyster; it's not your beginner's mushroom, requiring several weeks before revealing its growth.
Considered a true gourmet delight, you won't find these in your local supermarket. In fact, there are not many growers cultivating this type of oyster mushroom in New Zealand. I take pride in bringing this culinary gem to Canterbury, offering both fresh mushrooms and grow kits.
Get ready to embark on a unique culinary journey with Pleurotus Australis! ๐โจ Australis
