FAQ / Technical Support
Where Do I Start?
What is microdosing?
Microdosing involves the ingestion of a sub-perceptual amount of any substance, including magic mushrooms, for a subtle yet powerful shift in perception, perspective and purported health benefits.
How do I pick my dose? What do you mean by a “schedule” or “protocol” for microdosing?
A microdose of magic mushrooms is generally anywhere between 50 and 250mg. Please see here for the low-down on all things dosed – from micro to mini to macro and beyond.
Can I microdose while taking medication?
We do not provide any medical advice. Our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or disorder. We invite you to refer to a qualified health professional for the appropriate information tailored to your needs.
How can I supplement my microdosing practice?
We invite you to get curious about setting an intention before engaging in a microdose ritual. For best results, it’s recommended to integrate self-reflective practices like journaling, and mindfulness-based practices, like yoga or breathwork, into your daily routine. We encourage you to drink lots of water, spend more time in nature than usual, and to move – and listen to – to your body. Check out our Psychedelic Self-Care section to get further acquainted with the good stuff.
Product
What kind of mushrooms do you use in your products?
We use Albino Avery’s, a variety of psilocybe cubensis, in all of our products due to their mood-elevating, introspective, and relaxing effects. We source all of our mushrooms from conscious growers in British Columbia.
Is your product vegetarian? Gluten-free?
Our blends are made with organic, sustainably-harvested, local when possible plants, herbs and mushrooms and never contain any preservatives or filler. The gelatin capsules are pharmaceutical grade, non-GMO, pesticide-free, gluten-free, and manufactured in Canada, but not necessarily vegetarian-friendly. Please contact us for further inquiry.
What is the shelf-life of your product?
All gelatin capsules themselves are pharmaceutical grade and shelf-stable in a cool, dry place for 3-5 years. That being said, the quality of the product in the capsules will degrade and become less effective over time. We recommend consuming your product within one year of purchase for best results.
Legality
Are magic mushrooms legal to consume?
Magic mushrooms are still not considered legal in most instances in Canada under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, despite their widespread availability, unless you have been granted an exemption by Health Canada for use with an approved practitioner in end-of-life therapy or in the treatment of serious mental health disorders.
Are magic mushrooms safe to consume?
According to both the 2017 and the 2021 Global Drug Safety Survey, magic mushrooms are in the top 15 drugs consumed, presenting the least amount of physical harmful effects, and fewest amount of known emergency medical interventions needed. They are not considered to be addictive or habit-forming.
The long-term effects of psilocybin use are relatively unknown, as research ground to a halt in the late 1960’s and has only picked back up in recent history.
Always talk with a qualified doctor, nurse, friendly neighborhood pharmacist, or holistic health practitioner before introducing microdosing to your routine or mixing with medication, especially if you are diagnosed with a mental health disorder, pregnant or chest-feeding, or otherwise vulnerable to the effects of magic mushrooms.
Is it safe to buy mushrooms online?
We pride ourselves on offering a much safer alternative than meeting “your guy” in a parking lot.

We mail everything in unmarked, nondescript boxes or envelopes to seamlessly blend in with the thousands of other packages that go through the post every day.
