    We grow Mushrooms, onions, garlic and POE-Tate-OHS. Lots of herbs and greens as well. Fueled by Earth First Engineering and a waste nothing mentality.

    This is what patience looks like. Patience looks l This is what patience looks like. Patience looks like ‘demanding excellence despite the chips being down’. Despite wanting to move faster because you need to “get paid”. Patience last- no, it outlast. You can smell it. You can taste it. You can sure as shootin’ see it. We dont cut corners in anything we do. We are artist and art demands excellence. Good. Better. Best. Never let it rest. Till your good is better and your better is best.
    When we first moved out here we didn’t know beans When we first moved out here we didn’t know beans about farming. I had some experience growing hydroponic tomatoes and a few herbs. The first thing my dad told me was “I think you may of bitten off a lil’ more than you can chew.” He was beyond correct in his assessment. The place was a wreck. The land was dead and full of rocks.  We bought goats and they kept getting out and killing everything we planted. Within the first year of the move we lost a business and somewhere around a half a million dollars just vanished into thin air. But… we moved out here for a reason. The reason wasn’t “just to be farmers”. It was to unplug from the machine. It was to shield our kids from the absolute madness of the phycology culture that is turning people into beasts (both figuratively and literally 🤣). I believed (and still do) that humanity is on a collision course with its choice of direction, and I was not interested in the people that I love becoming casualties. It’s been five years now. Our marketing business that used to bring us unlimited comfort has been given up. We quit based on the hope that building a life with the hands and mind that God gave us,  might undo the damage that chasing the American dream had caused. And you know what? It’s working. The soil and the souls living here- they have been nourished, they have been tilled and and sown. Now, come the good fruit and seed. 🙏
    Your mushrooms have been living like cave dwellers Your mushrooms have been living like cave dwellers. Let’s fix that. 🍄☀️

Most mushrooms at the store are grown in the dark, which means they usually have little to no Vitamin D.

But here’s the cool part:
mushrooms can make Vitamin D when they hit sunlight, just like we do.

So before you cook them, let them catch a little sun.

How to do it:
	1.	Slice them up
More surface area = more sunlight hitting the mushroom.
	2.	Set them gill-side up
Lay them on a tray with the underside facing the sky.
	3.	Give them 15 to 30 minutes in direct sun
Midday works best.
	4.	Cook like normal
Sauté them, roast them, throw them in the pan. The Vitamin D holds up.

What’s happening:
Mushrooms contain ergosterol, a natural compound that turns into Vitamin D2 when exposed to UV light.

That means a simple sunbath can turn your mushrooms into something a whole lot more useful.

And yes, this works with the good stuff too.
Oysters. Lion’s Mane. The fancy fungi.

So next time you bring mushrooms home, don’t just cook them.

Charge them up first.
