I've been making my own vanilla extract for over a decade and used to buy my beans based on reviews at a Infamous Global seller. Was never sure what I would get. Then I found this company! The beans were beautiful! Fragrant, moist but not too moist, easy to cut open to expose the seeds and each Bean was six to seven inches long. I'm a happy extract maker! 💝💃🥳

Though not absolutely impossible, it is quite rare for Morchella to be grown commercially. Cultivated morels are most found in China. Typically wild morels are harvested in the springtime when they pop up along forest floors, dying trees, river banks, and occasionally disturbed flower beds. They are especially abundant in forested areas that have been recently burned by forest fires.
Though they are only found during spring and early summer months, they can be dried to preserve flavor and enjoyed year-round. While many mushrooms do not hold their natural consistency, when rehydrated, dried morel mushrooms that have been stored properly stay relatively true to form.
You can buy wild mushrooms online to enjoy throughout the year in broths, and braises. They are also decadent when sautéed, fried, stuffed, or baked.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Morel mushrooms are expensive because they aren’t farmed like most mushrooms you buy in a grocery store. They are farmed on a very large scale in China and gathered in the wild by a person who is well equipped to pick them. Morel mushrooms also have a very short season as they are grown in the spring and early summer. Once picked, they don’t last long. It’s important to know the difference between a real vs. false picked morel mushroom as true morel mushrooms can be easily misrepresented. If you cut a morel mushroom in half, a true morel mushroom will be hollow. A true morel mushroom also has a pitted or honeycomb type cap.
- Research shows that morel mushrooms have various health benefits and are good for you. They are a wonderful source of Vitamin D and help contribute to a healthy heart because they contain a high source of potassium, vitamins and copper.
- To clean morel mushrooms, start by putting the mushrooms in a paper bag or colander. Then, shake the bag vigorously to get off as much dirt as possible. Be careful not to break apart or bruise the mushrooms while doing this. Next, place the mushrooms in a bowl of cold water and swish the morels around until you don’t see any more dirt coming off. Finally, place the wet mushrooms on a layer of paper towels and quickly pat the mushrooms dry until the water in the holes drain out.
- Morel mushrooms are hard to grow because they don’t grow indoors like other mushrooms, giving you less control over the conditions. Morel mushrooms need sunlight, loamy soil and consistent moisture and cool temperatures. Spring is the typical growing season for morels, as it is mild and wet.
- Morel mushrooms grow in the spring and early summer. The ideal growing condition for morel mushrooms is an environment where the ground temperature is in the low to mid 50s. That’s why they grow best in rainy climates with daytime temperatures in the 60s and nighttime temperatures in the 40s.
- Mushrooms are grown in the forest or in the ground around oak, elm, ash and aspen trees. Morel Mushrooms are mostly found in China but can also be found in North America, Turkey, the Himalayas, India, and Pakistan.
