Forage Hyperfoods/Heartee Foods

Forage Hyperfoods is an Ottawa-based mushroom farm specializing in high-quality functional and gourmet mushrooms. We cultivate a variety of fresh mushrooms, including Lion’s Mane, Chestnut, Shiitake, Black Pearl, and multiple Oyster varieties, grown with care to ensure premium quality and freshness. As passionate farmers, we believe in making nutrient-rich mushrooms accessible to the community, whether for culinary use or daily wellness.

Beyond fresh mushrooms, we also produce Health Canada-approved medicinal mushroom tinctures, crafted locally in Carleton Place, Ontario. Our tinctures feature wild-harvested Chaga, Reishi, and Turkey Tail, as well as Ontario-cultivated Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, and Shiitake. Each tincture carries a Natural Product Number (NPN) and is made using a dual-extraction process to ensure potency and effectiveness.

New this year, we’ve expanded into Cryofresh freeze-dried mushrooms, offering a convenient, shelf-stable way to enjoy gourmet mushrooms anytime. We’re also exploring wild-foraged varieties like Morels, Trumpet Mushrooms, and Lobster Mushrooms for future expansion. We’d love to bring our farm-fresh mushrooms, functional tinctures, and innovative freeze-dried offerings to the ByWard Market District Authority and Parkdale Farmers’ Market to share the benefits of mushrooms with the community!
