Smallhold is on a mission to dramatically shorten the distance between you and fresh, gourmet mushrooms. Our growing network of organic farms is upending the traditional farming model with patented technology and a sophisticated supply chain, dramatically increasing access to freshly harvested mushrooms. You can find Smallhold in places like Whole Foods, Central Market, FreshDirect, farmers markets, and more. You can watch our mushrooms grow in tech-enabled minifarms inside restaurants, grocery stores, and nonprofits, or even on your own kitchen counter with one of our home grow kits, available at smallhold.com.
