Harvested to Order
I don’t store mushrooms in cold distribution warehouses. I coordinate directly with kitchens to harvest clusters at their absolute peak and run local delivery routes so they arrive unbruised and structurally intact.

FungiMarbella Gourmet mushrooms, harvested to order
Our mission is to supply the freshest, highest-quality gourmet mushrooms on the coast, harvested directly to order so they arrive intact and at their peak.
The artisan advantage
From lab to door, handled by one grower
Peak freshness, transparent sourcing, and varieties chosen for flavour and texture.
Certification in progress
While our mushrooms are not yet certified organic, we have started the certification process. We already grow on grain and substrate pellets that are certified organic by our suppliers, and we're happy to share their certificates on request.
What's in them
Oyster mushrooms are low in fat and sodium, and a natural source of potassium, copper and B vitamins, including niacin (vitamin B3). Niacin contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Mushrooms are also among the richest food sources of ergothioneine, a naturally occurring amino acid. We grow year-round in climate-controlled rooms.
The varieties
Clean, intense gourmet mushrooms
Meaty, chicken-like Pink Oysters, thick-stemmed Black Pearls, and Lion’s Mane with a texture that recalls lobster or crab. Grown here in Marbella, year-round.
Blue oyster
Pleurotus ostreatus
Deeply savoury and earthy, with subtle anise notes when young. Dense and meaty, good for searing or braising.
Pink oyster
Pleurotus djamor
Mild, woody, and slightly sweet with a chicken-like bite; crisp slices echo savoury bacon.
Yellow oyster
Pleurotus citrinopileatus
Highly aromatic and delicate, with light notes reminiscent of dry-roasted cashews.
Black pearl
Pleurotus ostreatus hybrid
Thick, dense, succulent stem. Think king oyster or scallop, with a potent umami crown.
Lion’s mane
Hericium erinaceus
Sweet, clean, and stringy. A lot like lobster, crab, or minced shrimp.

More varieties on the way
Next up I’m looking at Chestnut mushrooms, and I’ll keep adding as the farm grows. After a specific variety? Get in touch and I’ll see if I can grow it for you.
How it works
Grow, harvest to order, deliver to your door
Cultivate
Strains are cloned in a sterile lab and grown on custom substrate blocks designed for the Marbella climate, with data-driven climate automation.
Harvest to order
Clusters are hand-harvested at peak, timed with kitchens and local customers, so nothing sits in a cold warehouse.
Deliver personally
Every batch is delivered straight to your door by the same person who grew it, unbruised and structurally intact.
The story
Behind FungiMarbella
I started this farm with a clear mission: to supply the freshest, highest-quality gourmet mushrooms on the coast, harvested directly to order so they arrive intact and at their peak. My background is in ecology and advanced cultivation methods. After studying Marine Biology and Coastal Ecology in the UK, I focused on homesteading projects, including building experimental indoor systems to test aeroponics and fogponics (the same tech researched for resource management in space travel).
I eventually shifted my focus entirely to mushrooms. Cultivating gourmet varieties allows me to combine data-driven climate automation with clean, careful production. I handle everything myself: cloning top-performing strains in a sterile lab, mixing my own custom substrate blocks for the Marbella climate, then hand-harvesting every batch and delivering it myself.
