Where do Reishi mushrooms grow?
Reishi mushrooms grow at the base of certain trees, typically deciduous ones, but even then they’re hard to find. In nature, in fact, only a handful of trees in a forest of thousands will have Reishi growth. That’s part of why these mushrooms were so highly prized in ancient China and Japan. Since then, however, people have found ways to cultivate Reishi on a larger scale, and these mushrooms are now grown commercially in various parts of the world.
