About Us

Our Story

At Modern Mushroom, we believe in the transformative power of nature and the resilience of the human spirit. Our journey began in mid-2024, but its roots trace back to a life-changing challenge that reshaped our purpose.

In 2020, Ashley faced a harrowing battle with COVID-19, which was followed by a diagnosis of Guillain-Barré Syndrome. This rare condition left 80% of her body paralyzed, forcing her to relearn even the simplest of movements, like standing and walking. As her nervous system was under attack, we embarked on a determined quest to find solutions that could support her recovery.

That’s when we discovered Lion’s Mane mushroom—a natural remedy known for its potential to rebuild and support the nervous system. The results were undeniable and gave us hope when we needed it most.

To ensure Ashley had an abundant and cost-effective supply, Shaun began cultivating Lion’s Mane at home. What started as an act of love and necessity quickly blossomed into a passion for mushroom cultivation.

Today, Modern Mushroom is more than just a business; it’s a story of healing, perseverance, and the incredible gifts nature provides. We are dedicated to sharing the benefits of mushrooms like Lion’s Mane with others, helping improve lives one harvest at a time.

Welcome to Modern Mushroom—where health, growth, and purpose thrive together
