We believe in fungi’s ability to heal our bodies and the planet. Across centuries and cultures, humans have long understood the healing powers of mushrooms, and medical science is just beginning to comprehend their transformative capabilities.

Meet the Founders | Benjamin + Nicole Wolf

As the founders of West Wolf Farm in Boulder, Colorado, we have become passionate medicinal mushroom advocates in our local community. Yet there is only so much fungi you can grow on a one-acre plot—no matter how rich the soil. After trying countless other mushroom powders and supplements to support our health, we founded West Wolf Medicinals. We wanted to help bring the healing potential of these incredible adaptogens to others seeking a practical, safe solution to such common wellness issues as anxiety, loss of libido and brain fog.

Our medicinal mushroom journey began in our mid-forties as we began to feel the effects of aging. Given the undesirable side effects of many Western medicine solutions, we were seeking a way to increase our stamina, rediscover our desire and spark a renewed sense of creativity without relying on a daily intake of chemicals. The research we found on medicinal mushrooms not only impressed us—it inspired us to change our entire lifestyle and dedicate our time to mushroom farming.

Yet, in trying many of the medicinal mushroom products available, we realized that finding high-quality, full potency powders—the kind tested in respected scientific research—was difficult. Given our experience as mushroom farmers, we felt qualified to interview and evaluate mushroom powder suppliers, ensuring they use documented extraction processes and offer verified beta-glucan counts, among other proven metrics.

We also sought to make incorporating these powders into existing habits easier, as their benefits are most reliably seen in those who take them consistently. Finally, rather than reading all the research and weighing the benefits of Lion’s Mane versus Cordyceps, we wanted to make it easy for busy people to choose a product that supports their unique lifestyle needs.

That’s how our lifestyle blends were born: a combination of rigorously researched medicinal mushrooms and complementary herbs that further support their properties. Simply add the recommended dosage to your favorite morning drink.

Our single mushroom products will be available soon, in powder form as well as capsules. These are an easy way for people to access who take supplements and do not want to change the taste of their morning joe. It was a demand consumers spoke frequently to us about. They will be the same highly potent varieties in our blends, this time offered for specific needs, for instance Turkey Tail for anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory benefits. So stay tuned!
