Welcome to Fungitarian

This isn’t just a wellness brand. It’s a mission.

A movement. A remembering.

Fungitarian is your space to reconnect—to your body, your food, your community, and your purpose—through the ancient intelligence of mushrooms and the science that unlocks their full power.

We create real mushroom medicine, made by real mushroom farmers, for real transformation.

This is ancient magic, future science—and a lifestyle rooted in truth.

A Note from our Founder,

I didn’t create Fungitarian because mushrooms were trending. I created it because mushrooms helped me heal—mentally, physically, and spiritually—and that healing changed the course of my life.

Years ago, I was caught in a storm of addiction, burnout, and disconnection. I had tried everything—pills, diets, workouts—but nothing addressed the root. It wasn’t until I stepped into nature, into ritual, and into the world of natural medicine that things finally began to shift. I made a promise that day: if I made it out, I’d help others find their way too.

That promise became a purpose.

I co-built Windy City Mushroom, one of the largest indoor mushroom farms in the Midwest. Together with my team, we grew tens of thousands of pounds of gourmet and medicinal mushrooms monthly—feeding schools, grocery stores, and families across Chicago and beyond. But for me, mushrooms weren’t just a crop. They were a calling.

That calling became Fungitarian—a brand and a movement dedicated to truth, quality, and community-driven healing. We’re not backed by hype or hidden formulas. We’re backed by care, science, and lived experience. Every product we make is crafted with integrity—from farmers who live this lifestyle.

If you’re here, maybe something in you is ready to return to the truth. To live closer to nature, closer to yourself. Welcome to the movement.

From Farmers to a Movement. This Is Fungitarian.

We didn't set out to start a brand. We set out to start a revolution.

Back when we were building Windy City Mushroom—just two guys obsessed with fungi and the future of food—we realized mushroom people didn't have a name.

Vegans had one. Carnivores had one. But us? The ones stacking Lion's Mane for clarity, sautéing oysters like steak, and popping reishi drops before bed? We were nameless. So we claimed our space and coined our identity:

Fungitarian. What started at a farmers market with a folding table and homemade tinctures became something bigger as people felt the movement. After years of perfecting dual-extracted, liposomal mushroom medicine with mycology legend Charlie Bry—using bioreactors, real fruiting bodies, and local hands in Crystal Lake, IL—we built something different.

Now our mission is 10 million Fungitarians strong, changing how we eat, heal, and show up in the world, one mushroom at a time.

Our Vibe

Mushrooms every day? Yeah, we’re into that. Fungitarians believe mushrooms aren’t just supplements — they’re a lifestyle. A daily way to nourish your body, elevate your mind, and reconnect to the Earth. We craft our mushroom drops and gummies with real fruiting bodies, no fluff, and zero gimmicks. Just potent, bioavailable extracts — made with care, backed by science, and built for everyday rituals.Because we believe:


→ Food can be medicine
→ Healing starts with truth
→ Kids and grown-ups deserve real wellness
→ Community is medicine, too
→ And quality is sacred — from farm to bottleWe’re not a big brand. We’re a small crew of mycologists, farmers, and rebels who give a damn.
