How to eat organic brown button mushrooms?
Brown button mushrooms are prized for their firm texture and sweet, earthy flavor. They offer a more intense taste than their white counterparts. These mushrooms can be enjoyed in a variety of dishes, including salads, stir-fries, soups, and pasta recipes.
Is organic brown button mushroom good for my health?
Brown button mushrooms are rich in essential vitamins (B2, B3, B5, and D) and minerals such as selenium and copper. They are known for their antioxidant properties and their potential to strengthen the immune system. Some studies suggest they may support healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
How do I grow organic brown button mushrooms?
These mushrooms can be cultivated on a variety of substrates, including sawdust, wood chips, or even agricultural waste. With an indoor growing kit, it's easy to produce fresh organic mushrooms right at home.
Growing tips from our specialist
Gently loosen the seeded straw to oxygenate the mycelium. Then cover it with casing soil and spray lightly with water. Maintain a stable temperature between 15–20°C and keep humidity levels high. Brown button mushrooms thrive in cool, damp environments.

Growing method :
- Growing mushrooms at home is possible! Quick and easy, you can grow button mushrooms (and organic ones at that) in just a few weeks, and try out this fun growing method with this low-cost kit, which yields great harvests at home
- The mushrooms grow from the mycelium (a kind of seed) contained in the growing medium. There's no need to sow mycelium - it's already contained in the kit, so all you need to do is reactivate it and get it growing.
- Open the box and empty the casing soil (contained in the plastic bag on top of the straw) into a salad bowl.
- Moisten and mix, but don't soak too much either.
- Scrape the top of the straw to aerate it, then pour the goblet soil evenly over the entire surface.
- Put the lid back on, after pushing out the lugs on each side, so that it balances slightly elevated.
- Place in a cellar, storeroom or bathroom, or any other room not lit during the day and, if possible, not heated.
- Water by spraying with clear water every 3 to 4 days.
- Mushrooms will grow in 3 to 4 weeks.
- When you start to see a white veil on the surface of the soil, you can put the box in a room at 20°C to accelerate growth, while taking care to water it well so that your kit doesn't dry out.
Do not place near heating.
- Harvest when the mushrooms are 3 cm in diameter, tearing rather than turning them, to aerate the mycelium underneath and allow regrowth. 2 to 3 harvests are possible.
- Button mushrooms are ready to harvest when they reach full size and their caps begin to open.
- Use a clean knife to cut the mushrooms at the base of the stem. Harvest them as they mature, to avoid over-ripening.
Our advice: Place the kit in a cool, dark place in your home, such as a cupboard or cellar, where the temperature is between 15°C and 20°C. Make sure it's well ventilated, but protected from direct sunlight.
