The Mushroom Box on TV—Our Fungi Go Viral!

Did you know The Mushroom Box’s mushrooms aren’t just for eating or growing at home? Nope! Our mushrooms have popped up all over the country—making guest appearances on TV sets and film shoots that need a bit of natural flair.

We’ve Hit the Big & Small Screen

Yup, you read that right. Our mushrooms have popped up on some of your favourite shows, including:

MasterChef South Africa—where our mushrooms made judges (and contestants) drool on national TV!

Child of Blood and Bone—we supplied stunning mushrooms that helped create some epic fantasy shots.

Plus, loads of small projects and cool local films all around SA.

Why the Pros Love Our Mushrooms

Honestly, it’s simple:

They look amazing. Our mushrooms have got colour, style, and a bit of attitude—perfect for spicing up a scene.

We keep it fresh. Film crews know they can rely on us to sort them out, even when time’s tight.

Easy going, fast service. Need something a bit out the box? We’re always keen to help art departments get just the right look.

Want Mushrooms on Your Set?

Filmmaker, set designer, or just wanting to jazz up a shoot? If you’re looking for fresh, beautiful mushrooms to add that extra edge, give us a shout! We’ll help your set look legit, whether you want a mystical forest, an upmarket harvest table, or just something a bit wild.

So, next time you see a fancy mushroom on TV, you’ll know: yep, that could just be one of ours. Keen to get your hands on some real-deal film décor?

How it works:

You'll need to give us your order at-least 2 weeks ahead of time - These mushrooms look their best for only 3 days of their growth cycle so you'll want to time your mushroom growth accordingly. Simply cut the opening of your box 7-10 days before the shoot - they'll emerge shortly. Keep them in a healthy spot with fresh air and humidity to keep them happy for their big appearance!
