Lion's mane, reishi, chaga, shiitake — specialty and medicinal mushrooms with massive markups and almost no supply chain transparency. Fragmented producers with no clearing infrastructure. Pure greenfield for the transparent supply chain.
The medicinal mushroom market is growing 25%+ annually. Consumers spend $30-60 on lion's mane supplements with no way to verify the species, the growing substrate, the extraction method, or even whether the product contains actual mushroom. The transparent supply chain brings verified provenance to a market that desperately needs it.
Species, substrate, growing conditions, and harvest dates documented. Indoor, outdoor, and log-grown operations differentiated and verified.
Beta-glucan content, heavy metal testing, and species verification. Documented on the traceability record. No ambiguity about what's in the product.
Restaurants, health food stores, supplement manufacturers, and direct consumers. Every package carries the grower, the species, the substrate, and the test results.
This is pure greenfield. No existing platform serves specialty mushroom growers with clearing, traceability, and buyer matching. The market is fragmented, the markups are enormous, and the trust gap is the entire problem. The transparent supply chain is the first real infrastructure for this industry.
Many Rivercreek producers already grow mushrooms as a secondary operation — shiitake on hardwood logs, oyster mushrooms in unused barn space. The platform extends to serve them with the same clearing and traceability infrastructure.
