Phaewild Farm's Offerings:

Wild and Cultivated Mushrooms!

  • Fresh and Dried Lion's Mane (cultivated)
  • Fresh and Dried Wild Mushrooms, by availability
  • Delicious Mushroom Teas and Drink Mixes
  • More coming soon...

Guided Mushroom Walks!

Want to forage but don't know how to even start? Book a private tour, or as the mushroom community calls it, a "foray!"


Contact me for pricing and booking!


How it works: After discussing your goals, experience, and preferred location, I'll scout a trail and guide you on a hike on which we'll discuss foraging safety, how to ID mushrooms, and how to think like a pro forager and find more mushrooms.


Note: these forays are designed for education, not a guaranteed harvest, but we may occasionally find mushrooms to keep.


Available within 60 miles of Knoxville, TN, though exceptions will be considered!

Foraging Consultation and Coaching!

Been wanting to start foraging, but don't know where to start or how to stay safe?


We offer remote and in-person consulting and coaching for beginning and intermediate foragers!


Topics include:

  • Basic outdoor safety and common hazards
  • Mushroom safety guidelines
  • Identifying a new-to-you mushroom
  • Scouting a new location
  • Branching out in species
  • Finding and interpreting local regulations
  • And more!


Classes are currently under development, but for those interested in receiving a complementary (tip appreciated, but only if my advice works!) consultation, please reach out and mention this note.

We Deliver to Restaurants and Markets

My farm may be stationary, but I'm happy to deliver mushrooms! Contact me or follow on Instagram for current availability. I accept most forms of payment via Square.


Coming December 2025: I'll be at the GROW Oak Ridge Winter Farmer's Market!
