About Your Farmers
Just A Couple of Fungi’s is a family-founded indoor mushroom farm focused on growing clean, chemical-free mushrooms for both nourishment and healing. What started as a way to provide nutrient-dense produce for their own family has grown into a mission: to bring bold flavor, powerful nutrition, and natural wellness to the local community.
They grow 12–18 varieties of gourmet and functional mushrooms using organic methods, including Lion’s Mane, Blue Oyster, and Chestnut, and also produce pure Lion’s Mane and Blue Oyster mushroom powders. Their indoor setup is free of chemicals and contaminants—we believe mushrooms absorb what surrounds them, so we keep the air, environment, and growing inputs clean and intentional.

About our Farm Tour Series
Our 2026 Farm Tour Series gives you the chance to visit your local farms in person, get a realistic look at what goes into creating the food you place on your tables, and get to know the real people who produce that food. This series of events showcases the diversity of working farms in the greater St Louis region, including vegetables, livestock, mushrooms, fruits, flowers, and more! The price of your ticket honors a local farmer’s time and expertise, helps them to diversify their revenue, and supports Known & Grown’s ability to continue to offer farmer-focused, community-oriented programming.
