What a night! 🍄‍🟫🥩🍶🌮

Far West Fungi loved teaming up with our friends at SF Meat Co. and Swoop Removal for the third annual Bob’s Chop Shop… all in support of the Millbrae Education Foundation.

Guests enjoyed mushrooms, Wagyu, sake tasting, a taco bar, mushroom-inspired cocktails, and an incredible butcher demonstration with Bob and his sous-chef, Nico.

Amazing food, wonderful people, and a great cause… this is what community is all about. We’re already looking forward to next year! ❤️

Community Update 🌿
Far West Fungi has not sold Yellow Oyster mushrooms at our stores for quite some time, and we’ve now ended production and removed all Yellow Oyster cultivation options from our website as well.

We made this decision based on recent research and community feedback. We prioritize biodiversity and always strive to do what’s best for our planet.

Please note that this change will include a transition period. Many of our existing images still feature Yellow Oysters. This doesn’t change the fact that we have officially ended production.

Thank you to everyone who brought this to our attention! We appreciate your support and shared commitment to sustainability. 🍄💚💛
