Oyster Mushroom
Behind every grey oyster mushroom lies our passion for fresh, local, and sustainable mushrooms.
Why grey oyster mushrooms elevate every dish.
With its meaty, almost meat‑like texture, the grey oyster mushroom is incredibly versatile: pan‑seared, fried, shredded, or grilled, it absorbs flavors beautifully while staying tender.
Its mild, slightly earthy and umami flavor, enhanced by a subtle woody note, makes it a delicious plant‑based alternative to meat and a good source of plant‑based protein.

What if the forest could grow… indoors?
At Leciel, we recreate the ideal conditions to grow lion’s mane, a locally cultivated mushroom from Quebec. Humidity, temperature, light, and airflow are carefully controlled to mirror the forest’s natural rhythm.
In this perfectly managed environment, our lion’s mane mushrooms fruit as they would on the forest floor—yet with the precision that technology allows. The result: a fresh mushroom with a delicate texture and a well‑developed umami flavor, harvested at peak maturity.
A sustainable and responsible cultivation
Our lion’s mane mushrooms grow on wood residues sourced from local sawmills, valuable materials to which we give a second life. By diverting them from landfills, we reduce waste while making better use of resources from here at home.
This sustainable approach allows us to cultivate local mushrooms year‑round, with a reduced environmental footprint. It’s a concrete way to grow differently—respecting nature, Quebec’s resources, and the generations to come.
Grown here, to nourish our community.
At Leciel, growing Quebec‑raised lion’s mane mushrooms is much more than a production method. It’s our way of contributing to Quebec’s food autonomy while offering fresh, local, and accessible food.
Producing locally, year‑round, with intention and pride is at the heart of our mission. Nourishing our community with fresh mushrooms grown in Quebec, this is our way of thinking big.
Fresh mushrooms available direct or in grocery stores
You can purchase our mushrooms directly at ourour Mirabel store or at several grocery stores across Quebec.
