Alpine Truffle LLC

Alpine Truffle is a Washington-based nursery serving truffle growers across North America. Founded by mycologist Aziz Turkoglu, the company combines more than 20 years of experience in truffle cultivation and mycology, including expertise gained in Turkey, France, Italy, and Sweden. Its work focuses on the relationship between host trees and fungi, with an emphasis on verified inoculation and healthy root systems.

Alpine Truffle sells potted oak and hazelnut trees inoculated with Perigord black truffle fungi. The company says its lab-based process is designed to prevent contamination, and that batches undergo DNA verification and independent testing with European scientific collaborators. A minimum order of 25 trees applies.

Beyond tree sales, Alpine Truffle provides orchard consulting to help customers plan and manage truffle orchards, as well as microscopic root testing for existing orchards to assess colonization and tree health. The company also offers cultivation support, including planting and care guidance, and provides lectures and courses. Its services are intended to support growers from establishing seedlings through orchard development and ongoing verification.
