We’re beyond excited to officially announce our new partnership with comedy legend and TV icon, Howie Mandel!
You may know Howie from his roles on America’s Got Talent, Deal or No Deal, or his long career as a stand-up comedian. But recently, Howie discovered something new that he’s just as passionate about—growing mushrooms at home. And what started as curiosity quickly turned into a full-blown hobby.
After trying out one of our easy-to-use mushroom grow kits, Howie became an instant fan. He loved the simplicity, the excitement of watching mushrooms fruit right before his eyes, and the fact that absolutely no gardening experience is required.
So much so, in fact, that Howie reached out to us directly. He believed in our products and mission so much that he wanted to help spread the word. Now, he’s not just a fan—he’s officially the face of Midwest Grow Kits.
“It’s amazing how easy it is to grow mushrooms with these kits,” Howie says. “You don’t need to be a scientist or have a green thumb. You just follow a few steps, and in no time, you’ve got your own homegrown mushrooms. I love it.”
A Shared Mission
At Midwest Grow Kits, our goal has always been to demystify mushroom cultivation. We’ve helped hundreds of thousands of people take the leap into growing gourmet and medicinal mushrooms at home—without needing lab equipment or prior knowledge.
Having someone like Howie Mandel—who’s known for being curious, creative, and just a little unconventional—join us on this mission is a perfect fit. His enthusiasm brings a fresh, fun energy to the world of home mycology, and we couldn’t be more excited for what’s to come.
What to Expect
This collaboration marks the beginning of some amazing new content, promotions, and behind-the-scenes moments featuring Howie’s journey as a first-time grower. Expect to see Howie in upcoming videos, product features, social campaigns, and even on our website—sharing his honest take on what it's like to grow mushrooms at home.
Whether you're brand new to mushroom growing or a seasoned cultivator, there's never been a better time to get started.
