Our Values
-
Local
We believe in the power of local. All our Lion’s Mane products are UK-grown and crafted, supporting local communities and ensuring peak freshness and potency. Unlike others, we refuse to import mushroom powders, as mushrooms are one of the most sustainable food sources, requiring minimal land, water, and energy while producing the least CO2 emissions. For us, it’s about prioritising the planet and people over profit, ensuring our practices benefit the environment while delivering the highest quality products.
-
Sustainable
Sustainability is at the heart of Happy Fungi. Our entire operation is powered by renewable energy, specifically from a biogas plant. Not only does this reduce our carbon footprint, but we also contribute to a circular economy by putting all of our growing waste back into the biogas plant to help produce electricity. This closed-loop system ensures that nothing goes to waste and that our impact on the environment is as positive as possible.
-
Accessible
We believe that everyone should have access to the incredible benefits of Lion’s Mane. That’s why we strive to make our supplements affordable without compromising on quality. Accessibility is about more than just price; it’s about ensuring our products are available to anyone who could benefit from them, regardless of where they are on their wellness journey.
Exceptional Craftsmanship and Quality
At Happy Fungi, quality is our utmost priority. From the moment we cultivate our Lion’s Mane mushrooms to the final extraction process, we adhere to rigorous standards to ensure every supplement is as potent and effective as nature intended. Our mushrooms are grown under carefully controlled conditions, ensuring purity and consistency in every batch. We employ advanced extraction techniques, including a triple extraction process at a 1:4 ratio, with each bottle containing 248 grams of pure Lion’s Mane. This method maximises the bioavailability of beneficial compounds, ensuring that our customers receive the full spectrum of benefits that only the finest Lion’s Mane can offer. Every product undergoes stringent testing to guarantee it meets our high standards. When it comes to quality, we settle for nothing less than the best.
Inspired by Nature, Driven by Purpose
Discovering the Potential
Starting as a personal quest, driven by frustration over expensive, ineffective supplements that lacked proper extraction processes. Determined to make a real difference, deep research began, leading to the discovery of how to grow high-quality Lion’s Mane independently.
The First Harvest
The first successful harvest of Lion’s Mane, grown in a small flat, was a transformative experience. The simplicity and success of the process sparked a deep love for cultivation and a newfound appreciation for creating something tangible and real.
A Leap of Faith
As the growing process was perfected, it became clear that this passion could become something more. Leaving behind a previous successful career wasn't easy, but the need for a healthier, more balanced life, combined with a strong sense of purpose, made starting a new business the natural next step.
Cultivating Tomorrow
At Happy Fungi, our vision reaches far beyond Lion’s Mane supplements. We are committed to expanding our offerings to include a diverse range of functional mushrooms like Reishi, Cordyceps, Chaga, Turkey Tail, etc. each crafted into high-quality supplements with the same dedication to excellence. But our ambitions don’t stop there. We’re passionate about making fresh, locally grown gourmet mushrooms available to everyone, celebrating their rich flavours and remarkable health benefits. Our future includes innovative food and beverage products that integrate the power of mushrooms in exciting and delicious ways. As we grow, our focus remains on sustainability, quality, and accessibility, driving us to pioneer new possibilities within the vibrant world of fungi.
