With the start of the pandemic, healthy resources became scarce, and mushrooms were out of stock in nearly every grocery store and co-op. Chicago needed a sustainable option for local consumers and Windy City Mushroom was born. Located in the Ford City neighborhood of Chicago, we pride ourselves on growing the finest premium gourmet mushrooms Chicago offers at an affordable price.
Our mission is to get mushrooms on every dinner plate in the country. That means growing mushrooms sustainably and affordably. We do that not only by providing you with the freshest and most delicious mushrooms in Chicago but with our Fungitarian line of fully cooked oyster mushrooms.
We are paving the way for future Fungitarians everywhere to have access to fresh and local mushrooms at an affordable price. We want everyone in Chicago to have access to real food. We’re helping educate the next generation on the health and nutritional benefits of mushrooms and the entire Fungi kingdom!
Meet Daniel James, MMA fighter turned Fungitarian. Currently ranked #8 heavy-weight in the country, James talks about how mushrooms have changed his game. To train like an athlete, you need to fuel like an athlete. We’ll be sharing more of James story in the weeks to come. Watch Showtime PPV.
Still not over this undeniably delicious and “meaty” looking Lion’s Mane mushroom made in the @wickedkitchenfood test kitchen.
