Where We Are?

Love Mushrooms is situated within Marcassie Farm, an organically certified smallholding and micro land-based business hub and community project in Northeast Scotland, near the Cairngorms national park.

We feel lucky to be surrounded by mature woodland, acres of farmland, fruit, herb and veggie gardens, flocks of laying hens, ducks and Gotland x Shetland sheep. We share Marcassie smallholding with other enterprises including Marcassie Farm Lodges, the award-winning Naturally Useful and Dan Puplett’s Nature Awareness.

Altogether we enjoy the synergies that exist in our humble corner of the Scottish Northeast and look forward to sharing our love with you.

Erik’s journey into the world of mycology, complemented by a Master’s degree and a zeal for organic farming and culinary exploration, has woven a rich tapestry of experiences across global farms and restaurants. Hailing from Norway and France, his childhood curiosity about the diverse world of mushrooms evolved into a dedicated pursuit.

Over the past ten years, Erik has been meticulously cultivating mushrooms, honing his skills and deepening his understanding of their cultivation, health, and nutritional benefits.

Quality & Efficacy

Love Mushrooms combines carefully selected mushrooms from our own and partner farms, always using organic ingredients.

Each batch undergoes rigorous lab testing for elements such as heavy metals, these results being listed in the Certificates of Analysis.

Unleashing the Power of Ultrasonic Extraction Technology

Love Mushrooms is the only mushroom food supplement company in the UK harnessing the groundbreaking benefits of ultrasonic mushroom extraction. This advanced technology utilises high-frequency sound waves to break the mushroom cell walls and therefore potently extract the bioactive compounds, thus delivering superior quality and enhanced bioavailability.

Ultrasonic extraction maximises the yield of essential vitamins, minerals, and immune-boosting compounds, ensuring optimal health benefits. To boot, the process boasts minimal heat, energy-efficiency and speed (minutes, not days or weeks like many traditional extraction techniques), thus preserving the mushrooms’ integrity.

Because ultrasonic-extracted mushrooms offer vastly superior yields over any other extraction techniques, our products have the potential to offer superior benefits over other companies’ products! These benefits may include improved immune support, increased energy, enhanced cognitive function, and overall well being.
