Whoโs having this on their next visit? ๐
@slowburnlondon is one of our most local customers - just 2.5 miles from our base at @newspitalfieldsmarket .
It was great to stop by last week, see what Chavdar and the team are creating in such an amazing space, and capture a few snapshots of our mushrooms in action.
If youโre nearby, go check them out and try the layered mushroom ragout made with ELMC mushrooms ๐
The distance from our @newspitalfieldsmarket mushroom farm in E10 to the City of London is less than 6 miles, and we make almost all of our deliveries by @zherolondon cargo bike, with the rest going out via e-van ๐ฒ
We're delighted that we're able to keep our food miles and carbon footprint to a bare minimum โป๏ธ
We're starting our first harvest of speckled chestnut mushrooms this week, and they're looking speckled-tacular #platinumleveldadjoke #sorrynotsorry๐ฅ
We're big fans of their mild earthy, nutty flavor and crunchy texture, and we think the chefs we work with will love them too ๐
Connor loves cooking with our newest strains, and Faizan brings inspiration from his other job as a chef @somsaa_london , so it's no surprise that we take staff lunch seriously at our New Spitalfields Market farm ๐จโ๐ณ
Turning surplus into something proper ๐๐ฆ
Josh @josh.rocke119 took duck breast trim and ELMC mushrooms @elmc.uk and turned it into a rich stroganoff with wine, stock and cream.
Big flavour from ingredients most kitchens overlook.
Thanks to @fatfoxmushrooms for the kitchen support.

Our current crop of lion's mane is looking absolutely superb ๐ฆ ๐
Our new webstore is launching next week, and these beauties will be available - stay tuned!
Last month we were hit by a series of power outages at the farm, which affected our ventilation systems ๐ฐ
We manually vented the grow rooms every few hours, but the higher CO2 levels still caused some funky results in the mushrooms growing at the time ๐ป
