Meet Rob and Stacy Kaufman, the passionate duo and "fun guys" behind Fungies, dedicated to Making Mushrooms Mainstream. With over 50 years of combined wellness expertise, this father-and-son team has transformed their love for functional mushrooms into a line of effective, delicious supplements.
Forget powders and pills, Fungies are mushroom-infused supplements that seamlessly fit into your daily routine. Whether you’re powering up your focus, boosting energy, or supporting overall wellness, Fungies makes feeling great fun and effortless. Welcome to the future of mushrooms!
What started as a simple business idea soon became a deeply personal passion for our family. When Rob's oldest son, Logan, was diagnosed with ASD, our mission took on a whole new meaning. Logan has been through a lot of therapy, but for over two years now, he’s also been taking our Lion’s Mane gummies. From my perspective, these little gummies have made a significant difference in his brain development. On the days he doesn't have them, we notice a shift—he struggles more with focus, everyday tasks feel tougher, and his mood just isn’t the same.
Rob's younger son, Cam, started taking the Lion’s Mane gummies when he was just 8 months old (he’s now 2), and he’s absolutely thriving. He’s surpassed every milestone and is already ahead of the curve. Maybe it’s from having a big brother to look up to, but I honestly believe the Lion’s Mane has played a key role in his incredible progress.
What’s most important to us is that these small daily rituals don’t feel like medicine or therapy to our kids. To them, they’re just “the red mushroom gummies” they happily ask for every morning. There’s no placebo effect here—just real improvement and joy for our family.
What began as a way to help others through our business has grown into a mission we live and breathe every day. This isn’t just something we make and sell—it’s something we truly believe in because it’s part of our story. And we’re so excited to share it with you.
We thought you'd love to know a little secret about us. The fun and adorable cartoon characters on our packaging and stickers come from a very special place – our own family members' names!
That's right, as a true family business, we wanted to create a unique and personal connection between our brand and our family's love for functional mushrooms. So, we decided to bring our family members to life in the form of these delightful characters, representing the spirit and essence of our mushroom gummies. They're a reflection of the passion, dedication, and love that goes into every Fungies product.
Next time you enjoy a gummy, take a moment to appreciate these whimsical characters.
