Fruit Bodhi Mushrooms
East Coker, Somerset
We are a literal family. The team consists of me (Tom), my wife, my mum, my dad, my sister, a couple of very close friends and of course my two children Ophelia and Otis. Our ethos is built on family values and connecting with what is essential in life. This includes family relationships but also our relationship with nature and particularly the fungal kingdom.
As a team, we specialise in growing mushrooms. We love growing mushrooms so much that we decided to produce a mushroom growing kit for the likes of yourself to try at home.
Proudly independent
A few favourite PIECEs
A lot of people ask us how Fruit Bodhi started. The idea came to us one day when we were thinking of a way to fulfil our love for mushrooms on a daily basis. Tom had spent many years walking in Dumfries and Galloway observing fungi in the wild, and for many years he had his head stuck in mycology books, mostly his hero's: Paul Stamets.
We thought of Fruit Bodhi as a way of inspiring new ways of seeing the hidden world of fungi and bringing that world closer to people. Just like Stamets and other mycology legends did for Tom! We hope to carry on meeting mushroom lovers along our journey and inspire others to dive into their dreams of growing mushrooms or engaging with mushrooms in some way. We think they’re really important in shaping the future of the world we live in.
Thanks for supporting us on our journey as always and happy growing/being mushrooms!
