How The Mushroom Box Looks On Your Shelves


🌱 Our Story: Mushrooms That Started a Movement

The Mushroom Box was born during lockdown—a time when food security and personal health became front and center.

Founder Alec Scott started experimenting with gourmet mushrooms, aiming to create a product that gave people more than food: it gave them self-sufficiency and a connection to nature.

Every Mushroom Box is designed to:

Grow 2–3 crops of fresh mushrooms on the kitchen counter

Be returned to the soil to grow wild in nature after use

Five years later, The Mushroom Box has become a national favorite among South Africans—serving 15,000+ happy growers and counting.
