Let customers speak for us
from 1083 reviewsEvery Thanksgiving, my grandfather and I would go mushroom hunting. We’d head out with a netted bag and return with it full—Slippery Jacks, though we didn’t know their name at the time. It was one of our favorite traditions. When he passed away in 1987, that tradition went with him.
Years later, I spotted some similar mushrooms at our local corner market, imported from South America. I bought them whenever I could, but eventually the store lost contact with their supplier, and I had no way of tracking them down. I kept a small container of them in the freezer for years, almost like a treasure. Recently, I finally used the last of them in a pasta sauce.
At the same time, I decided to give the internet one more try—even though I didn’t know what the mushrooms were called. I described what they looked like, where we found them, and the season we picked them. After some digging, I came across a name: Slippery Jack – Boletus luteus. That was it.
I found a site called Forest Mushrooms that carried them, and I ordered a pound that very night.
Six days later, the box arrived—well-packaged and secure. I opened the bag, took a deep breath, and there it was: that same earthy, nostalgic smell. I rehydrated a few in hot water, tasted one, and suddenly I was back in my grandmother’s kitchen. Her risottos, pasta dishes, holiday meals—it all came rushing back.
I can’t thank Forest Mushrooms enough. They didn’t just deliver mushrooms. They brought back a lost part of my family’s Italian cooking, and with it, some very special memories.
Love them made snow fungus soup. ❤️ delicious
After years of LM use, I am a Forest Mushrooms loyal customer.
Forest Mushrooms is my go-to place for high quality dried mushrooms. When they are hydrated, the bulk organic (and regular) shitakes are meaty, and packed full of umami aroma and flavor. These shitakes compliment a diversity of cuisines, and pair well with many other mushrooms, vegetables, and meats. Recommended.
We have been ordering dried shiitake mushrooms for a few years now from Forest Mushrooms. Their products and packaging are great and delivery is fast. Bonus points for being a family owned small business!!!
Fast shipping, I like that they are certified organic. Very happy with this purchase
I recently discovered Forest Mushrooms and have been absolutely delighted to find the organic mushrooms and the service for receiving them to be of the utmost quality. I'm enjoying the uplift and health that has come along with making my own tea out of the mushrooms since they've arrived at my home.
The mushrooms are great quality. I've ordered dried mushrooms from other vendors and the quality really didn't compare. The price and quality are incomparable and I'll use Forest Mushrooms whenever I need to restock.
Satisfied first time customer will definitely purchase again and again
I tried 3 of your powders and like this one the best.
Portobello, gritty but good
Porcini good
Best is Shiitake organic European. Nice flavor, not gritty, nice smell.
Thank you Forest Mushrooms for the wonderful mushrooms. They've been delicious and yielded a savory, tasty broth. Thank you also for your quick service.
