So many Americans have never grown their own food that it’s frightening. [Source: Farmer Food Share]

My husband and I keep a small vegetable patch in the city but it often ends up neglected during the busy times.

So, I leaped at the chance to try the Back To The Roots Organic Mushroom Growing Kit.

The premise is simple with a mushroom grow kit.

You can grow fresh mushrooms from the box in 10 days with almost no effort at all. I liked that for two reasons.

1. I love mushrooms, my kids love mushrooms, I think the cat loves mushrooms too. 🙂

2. No effort is the ideal solution to everything in life.

So, How Did The Organic Mushroom Growing Kit Perform

Firstly, this process is easier to watch than it is to explain.

So, I found this neat video on YouTube which teaches you how to use the kit.

It’s not very long because the process isn’t very long:

It’s so simple that even I could do it! At least, in theory. But how did it turn out in practice?

The Roots Of A Great Meal!

The big secret with this To The Roots Organic Mushroom Growing Kit is patience.

You can’t rush mushrooms and you need to set this up and then leave it alone.

The second is that when the mushrooms are ready to harvest, you need to harvest them – leave them too long and they can get dry.

If you follow those two rules; To The Roots Organic Mushroom Growing Kit (which I bought on Amazon and so can you) is an absolute winner.

I shallow fry oyster mushrooms with just a little garlic and they were superb.

Give it a go. Grow your first meal. I’d love to see the results!
