BIRCH BOYS MUSHROOMS

Wild Mushroom Extracts

Potent mushroom extracts - Made from mushrooms harvested in the Adirondacks of New York.

ETHICALLY WILDCRAFTED

Birch Boys takes great care to ensure that they do not over harvest or endanger the mushroom populations. They want these incredible mushrooms to be around for generations to come.

While the Adironacks are bursting with mushrooms, it's still important to only harvest a sustainable amount.

WOOD GROWN

Health promoting mushrooms (except cordyceps) grow on trees.

Unfortunately, too many mushooom supplement companies grow them on starch such as rice or tapioca. These grains lack many of the beneficial nutrients that mushrooms need that are found in their natural food source.

Grain grown mushrooms will never matcha the potency and nourishing potential that wood grown mushrooms have.

FRUITING BODIES

The fruiting body of the mushroom is where the benefits are and are what most people think of when they imagine a mushroom.

Unfortunately, most mushroom companies grind up the mycelium, the "roots" of the mushroom, along with the grain growth medium.

These products end up being mostly starch. These grain-based mycelium products are not mushroom supplements and will never have the benefits that a properly extracted fruiting body will.

Birch Boys use only the fruiting body when making their mushroom extracts.

WHY BIRCH BOYS?

Birch Boys was founded by the very passionate Garrett Kopp.

Garrett is working hard to get the word out about fake chaga products being sold by big names in the mushroom supplement industry.

We appreciate and admire his hard work.

To all the fake chaga product sellers, he's coming for you and we are all about it.

WHY BIRCH BOYS?

Birch Boys harvests all of their mushrooms themselves, from the Adirondacks in New York.

This ensures they only use the highest quality mushrooms and that the mushrooms are sustainably harvested.

This helps to protect the local environment and make sure that there is no over-harvesting.

Some companies we looked into, that produced wild-harvested mushroom extracts, were using middlemen, so they could not verify that there are was no overharvesting.

It is important to only use companies who are either harvesting the mushrooms themselves or buying directly from the harvesters. Knowing where and how the mushrooms are harvested is essential to ensure a sustainable product.

There is no reason that we cannot use products that benefit both us and the environment while preserving resources for future generations.
