Located at 12 Union City Road in Prospect, CT owned by the nicest and most informative individual, Patrick Blanchette. There is plenty of parking both in front and up around the side. Walk in through the front slider door then ring the bell at the counter. You will not wait long at all before Patrick arrives to assist you with whatever your mushroom or micro green heart desires. I am new to the world of mushrooms so I was absolutely fascinated to learn of the different types of mushrooms. Did you know there is a whole world of shrooms besides the white button, portobello or shiitake?
I brought home a fresh gorgeous cluster of oyster mushrooms. But before leaving Union City Farm I had a bunch of questions for Patrick such as, "How do I cook these beautiful mushrooms?" Patrick was absolutely awesome and explained how to cook them. I then had questions about his mushroom farm. He walked through the process of growing his mushrooms from start to finish. I learned so much about mushrooms during my brief visit. It was awesome!
Yes, I went straight home and cooked the oyster mushrooms exactly as Patrick instructed and they were delicious! I can't wait to go back to try the lion's mane.
The interior of Union City Farm is clean, cozy, and warm. Take a look at my pictures for a peek.
I absolutely recommend Union City Farm for all your micro green and shroomie needs! read more
