Welcome to Amsterdam's Urban Mushroom Lab!

Welcome to MOGU Mycology

At MOGU Mycology, we are dedicated to making gourmet mushrooms more accessible—whether by growing them for you, teaching you how to cultivate them yourself, or providing the tools to get started. Based right here in Amsterdam, our urban farm specializes in fresh, high-quality mushrooms, easy-to-use grow kits, and hands-on courses for all skill levels. The name MOGU (蘑菇) comes from the Chinese word for mushroom, reflecting our passion for fungi and the incredible benefits they offer.

About Us

MOGU Mycology started as a small project in a student room and has since grown into a full-scale mushroom lab. Our cultivation is led by doctoral researchers in microbiology, applying cutting-edge scientific knowledge to optimize growth conditions, maximize yields, and ensure the highest quality. This expertise allows us not only to grow exceptional mushrooms but also to educate others with deep, research-backed insights.
