Growing kit & fresh mushrooms
I’ve ordered both a growing kit and fresh mushrooms now and both have been great. Watching the magic happen with the easy to use growing kit and then harvesting our home grown pink oyster mushrooms. The fresh mixed mushrooms are fantastic quality too. Website was easy to use and delivery was via Royal Mail (no problems encountered at all). Will definitely be ordering again.

Very fresh mushrooms
I bought Merit mushrooms a couple of times from their stall at Marylebone farmers market so I was familiar with their offer and quality; this was my first online order. I’m lucky that I live in their own delivery catchment area so that the mushrooms didn’t have to be posted. The mushrooms were very fresh and well packaged. My only remark is that the maitake mushrooms were quite small florets that broke down into small pieces releasing a lot of moisture when baked. But they’re so hard to find, especially at reasonable cost, and they were very good value for money. I will definitely order/buy again.

Hi,
