Fresh Lions Mane Mushrooms 300g / 1kg / 2kg

Our freshly harvested Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is grown right here in South Africa - This is as fresh as it gets: harvested to order and available for collection at the Oranjezicht City Farm Market in Cape Town.

What does it taste like? Mild, sweet, and subtly reminiscent of seafood — think crab or scallop, without the ocean. When pan-fried in butter with a little garlic and salt, Lion's Mane develops a golden crust and a tender, meaty centre. It's exceptional as a standalone dish, sliced thick and seared, or pulled apart and used in pasta, risotto, or a plant-based "seafood" roll.

Why Lion's Mane? Beyond the flavour, Lion's Mane has a long history of use in traditional wellness practices and is one of the most researched culinary-medicinal mushrooms in the world. Many people include it as part of a mindful, whole-food lifestyle — and now you can enjoy it at its freshest, straight from our farm to your kitchen.
