Brisbane-based gourmet mushroom farm, growing & preserving a variety of different mushroom forms, including Reishi, Lion's Mane, Turkey Tail & Cordyceps.
Our mission, is to deliver quality mushrooms to you to enhance your mind, body & health! 🍄
When making a mushroom tincture filtering the menstruum at different stages strategically placed to remove unwanted chemicals that build up in the mushroom as they grow is of the utmost importance to have the highest quality product.
What you see here is an initial crude filter there are 4 more steps to follow working down to .5 micron.
Cordyceps to us is a daily non-negotiable. For energy, for health, for nervous system function, for immunity, for performance.
Available both in tincture form, and in raw dried fruit body - source your cordyceps in a way that makes it easy for you to consume consistently.
Free shipping Australia-wide on all orders over $100 🍄
Your daily coffee (decaf or full of the good stuff) can get even more energising! And, in a natural way that works synergistically WITH your body's natural systems, rather than in a drug-like way.
For a nervous system + brain boost we recommend the super power combo of Lion's Mane & Cordyceps together. We sell both of these wonderful mushroom species as tinctures (mushrooms extracted into a liquid), which mixed int your coffee, are flavourless!
With consistent daily intake (at least 2 weeks) we often find users will notice the benefits:
+ Morning clarity (bye-bye brain fog)
+ Energy & performance (your natural pre-workout)
+ Brain function
+ Nervous system function
+ Immunity
Free shipping for all orders over $100 if you're ready to give them both a try!

Meet this guy…
✨ Shaggy Mane // Ink caps ✨
Genus: Coprinus Comatus
Geographics: These guys are found any time of the year, in Australia, New Zealand and Iceland, but natively, in Canada (where they are now a threatened species).
Habitat: You’ll most likely find them after rain, in lawns, alongside gravel roads, pastures and other disturbed areas. These stunning mushrooms are EDIBLE - forage away!
Appearance: Shaggy Mane have gills, which liquify to black ink with age - hence their alter ego name, “Ink Caps”. They have an almost cylindrical cap, covering most of the stem when young. The caps are dry and white with brownish-tipped scales. The tightly packed white gills turn pink then liquifing with black spores. They have a central thick stem, hidden by the cap. They have a white flesh, and general mild taste.
Consuming:
🍄 These mushies are edible & non-psychedelic.
+ They must be eaten within 4-6 hours of harvest as it will liquefy into a inky black mess
+ They are a delicious choice edible by many
+ The liquid spores have been used as temporary ink for writing.
�** Always practice caution when foraging and never eat a mushroom from what you have learned online, in books or on cards. learn from experienced people and if in doubt do not consume **

We’d love for you to share them with us! 👇
Our mushrooms are pretty special things, but no - they won't make you hallucinate. Our tinctures, infused honey & dehydrated raw fruit alike are all ✨ NON-PSYCHEDELIC ✨
With all the 'taboo' around mushrooms, we completely understand the confusion however, and we are proud to share & represent more education in the natural nutrition space.
The four species of mushroom that we currently grow, produce & range - Lions Mane, Reishi, Cordyceps and Turkey Tail - are each known for millennia for their individual health contributions. They all contain no psilocybin (the active compound that makes certain other mushroom species psychedelic).
We're excited to be featured in - a global, online holistic lifestyle publication sharing a hub of information that empowers their readers (in over 50 countries! 🌎) to create their own holistic way of living. We resonate with the values this magazine puts forward, and are grateful to share a little mush-love with their community!
If you're interested in reading the whole article, we've linked it in our stories - and would love to hear your thoughts (comment them below 💛)
The article discusses a little about our founder, Sam, what prompted his transition to the use of mushrooms for functional well-being and our broader vision for the future of Bright Valley Mushrooms.
Hello hello, in case you missed the memo - we're running a super special offer where you can grab tinctures for only $30.00! While our lion's mane is now sold out, we have a few Reishi, Turkey Tail & Cordyceps bottles still left. Only running while stocks last!
If you've been looking for a good excuse to top up your supply, or try our tinctures for the first time - here it is! 😉
Mush love for your support to our local business, we love doing what we do, and are so grateful for every order that enables us to do so. 🍄

Starting with…
✨ Velvet foot ✨
Genus: Flammulina velutipes
These guys are found in clusters of wood - recognised by their dark feet and golden tops. These stunning mushrooms are EDIBLE - forage away!
Appearance: small-medium, darkening towards the base of their velvety stems and pale higher up near the gills. Sticky and moist when fresh, however the caps become dry with age. They may be found as golden yellows, oranges and browns - but these colours fade with maturity. A younger mushroom will display a convex turned under the cap, whilst maturing to convex or flat.
Habitat: As decomposers, they are found mostly on hardwoods, at the base of trees and shrubs and in the remnants of fallen trees and woodchips.
Geographics: Loving a temperate European climate, Velvet foot will grow all year round here. Depending on locality they will also pop up in North America and Oceanic peaks.
Fun Facts: This mushie is a variety of enoki, and can be grown at home if you’re up for a project. It’s also non-psychadelic.

Why a natural approach to health products?
✨Because feeling good LONG TERM is the goal
✨Avoiding side effects is ideal
✨Natural products work synergistically with your body: letting your systems function the way they are designed to
✨Pharmaceuticals definitely have their place and purpose, but if you’re feeling like there has to be another way - you aren’t alone.
For the people who feel that they have “tried everything”, mushrooms have been a valued alternative.
They offer a subtle approach to medicine, producing gradual positive change over time, and work synergistically with the body’s process of adaptation. When founder Sam personally researched and tried different products to support his body through periods of high-stress, mushrooms were a varied range of food that he found long-lasting & positive benefit from.
This is something that we love about mushrooms & quality nutrition more generally - it makes you feel BETTER, but in a subtle & sustainable way.

What can you expect to 'feel'?
The answer no one tells you 👉 NOT MUCH!
✨ And that's a GOOD thing ✨
Because this is generally what natural medicine feels like.
Natural medicine works synergistically with your body, not in replacement of it, which means that you won’t “feel” the drugs kick in and take over.
However, you should definitely feel a subtle increase in energy, in the stability of your moods, in your ability to stay well (i.e. less sore, sick, stressed, fatigued). Depending on your personal symptoms and how “tuned-in” to your body you are - you might also notice differences in digestion, sleep patterns, physical performance and mental clarity.
This is something that we love about mushrooms & quality nutrition more generally - it makes you feel BETTER, but in a subtle & sustainable way.

30g cordyceps going into risotto. You can cook with these little chetto looking mushroom just the same as buttons or shiitake. They just need a bit of boiled water to rehydrate and good to go, but don't throw out the water this can be used later on in the dish for the rice Or If you want a tea with some lemon and Manuka honey works great to boost the immune system as we shift down gear into the colder months. My cordyceps are grown here in Australia on Australian organic ingredients, no bugs are harmed to grow these beautiful bright orange wiggly mushrooms. #cordyceps #risotto #delicious #immuneboostingfoods #winterwarmer #brightvalleymushrooms
Soxhlet upgrade level 5 This new stainless steel apparatus allows me to do in 1day what was taking a while week. The entire new piece of equipment is stainless so no chance of breakage, which I have had happen leaving me with broken glass and 2L of ethanol 🔥🔥 all over a heating mantle. Not fun, to say the least and lucky there was no ignition source. I've built further safety measures in around how the receiving vessel is heating, going over each hazard and risk and removing them from the method. I'm now making some of the most potent extract possible and making sure the more sensitive compounds are maintained in the final product. If your interested in purchasing some of my extract resin for your gummies, tinctures and more enquiries through [email protected] or DM. 🍄💙🤙🏻 #extracts #lionsmane #reishi #cordyceps #turkeytail #sh*take #premiumquality
This is 95% ethanol boiling at 56 degrees. 😳 I keep the temp low to avoid degradation of active compounds.

As open-minded supporters of holistic and alternative forms of medicine and support for everyday epic humans, we absolutely love staying up to date with the progressions in research in the mushroom space - as it comes out. While psychedelic mushrooms have been used for the lengths of time, they have definitely been poorly understood for a reasonable amount of this period, particularly through the knowledge of Western Medicine. We’d love to tell you a little more about this below! The history of Psychedelic Research for mental health treatments, actually started back in the 1940s! As far as mental health and psychiatric history goes - this is very early; mental health disorders gained minimal awareness until the last 50 years. Psychedelic research was, however, halted in the early 1970s - with changing laws around the use of different substances. At that point. psychedelics may have been more commonly considered drugs of abuse than potential therapies. Nowadays, research is (in our opinion) still limited, but has gained significantly more traction and attention that it previously had. As of 2021, two psychedelic drugs, MDMA 💊 & Psilocybin 🍄 have been granted “breakthrough therapy designation” by the FDA, meaning they may offer substantial benefits over existing treatment options. Read that again - “psychedelic research may offer substantial benefits over existing treatment options” - this is HUGE news! #psychadelicresearch #magicmushrooms #mushrooms #pyschadelicresearch #holistichealth #naturalhealth #naturalmedicine #tcm
