# SporeJoy Gardens

[SporeJoy Gardens](https://mushroom-kits.mock.shop/llms.txt) is a [mock.shop](https://www.mock.shop/) sample store for building against a garden supplies and harvest accessories shop before a real Shopify store is ready. The catalog includes garden soils and soil conditioners, hand-forged trowels and hoes, plant stakes and markers, terracotta planters, food dehydrators, and harvest tools. There are 24 products across four collections. Each product has one selector, and its price stays the same across its variants.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about [mock.shop sample stores](https://www.shopify.com/blog/mock-shop).

## When to use this store

Choose SporeJoy Gardens when you want to build a garden supplies and harvest accessories shop with garden-supply carts combining soils, tools, planters, and harvest accessories.

Use SporeJoy Gardens for:

- Garden supplies and harvest accessories shop with garden soils and soil conditioners, hand-forged trowels and hoes, plant stakes and markers, terracotta planters, food dehydrators, and harvest tools
- `blend ratio` choices on “Organic Bonsai Soil Mix”
- Garden-supply carts combining soils, tools, planters, and harvest accessories

Choose another mock.shop store if you need a garden tool catalog with combined material and finish choices. Browse <https://mock.shop/llms.txt> to find a store that matches your catalog.

## Example SporeJoy Gardens query

Here’s an example GraphQL `POST` request that retrieves options and variant prices for one product from <https://mushroom-kits.mock.shop/api>:

```bash
curl https://mushroom-kits.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ product(handle: \"organic-bonsai-soil-mix\") { id title options { name values } variants(first: 50) { pageInfo { hasNextPage } nodes { id title selectedOptions { name value } price { amount currencyCode } compareAtPrice { amount currencyCode } availableForSale } } } }"}'
```

This query retrieves Organic Bonsai Soil Mix, including option values, variant IDs, selected options, availability, and current and compare-at prices. Use the selected variant’s ID and price when adding it to a cart.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read <https://mushroom-kits.mock.shop/llms.txt> for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

## What this catalog lets you test

Build a garden supplies shop with soils, hand tools, planters, and harvest accessories. SporeJoy Gardens has four collections, including Foundation Substrate Blends and Essential Cultivation Tools, for browsing those products. The Organic Bonsai Soil Mix has standard, rich, and heavy blend ratio choices at the same price, giving customers a simple selector before adding it to a cart. Other products use their own option labels. The actual assortment supports a gardening storefront, not a claim that complete mushroom-growing kits are included.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening <https://mushroom-kits.hydrogen.mock.shop> in a browser.

## Build with an AI coding tool

To build a garden supply storefront with SporeJoy Gardens using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

```text
Build me a Hydrogen storefront using mushroom-kits.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: mushroom-kits.mock.shop/llms.txt
```

Shopify also provides a [mock.shop starter project](https://github.com/Shopify/mock-shop-starter): a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set `PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=mushroom-kits.mock.shop` in `.env` and restart the dev server to use SporeJoy Gardens’ catalog. Leave `PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN` empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

## Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, [start a Shopify free trial](https://www.shopify.com/free-trial) to create one.

Read the [mock.shop developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/mock-shop) for setup and migration details.
