Buy Heart of the Woods in Star Citizen when you need this rare harvestable for a Rayari Incorporated collection contract or another in-game objective. Select the quantity you need and receive the items through a coordinated player-to-player delivery instead of searching microTech for enough mushroom clusters yourself.
Heart of the Woods is a deep-red harvestable fungus found in cold environments. In the current Star Citizen 4.10.1 data, its confirmed natural harvesting location is microTech, and it is also required by the Rayari Incorporated Additional Resources For Research collection contract.
What Is Heart of the Woods in Star Citizen?
Heart of the Woods is an organic harvestable and food item distinguished by its fleshy dark-red caps. The fungus grows on trees and decaying logs in cold climates, making microTech a natural location for it.
The mushroom contains a mild toxin when raw. According to its in-game description, that toxin is destroyed through cooking, so the uncooked fungus should not be consumed directly.

Heart of the Woods for Rayari Missions
One of the most important current uses for Heart of the Woods is Rayari Incorporated progression. The Additional Resources For Research collection contract requires 15 Heart of the Woods and rewards Rayari faction reputation when completed.
Because the contract requires the specific resource, other mushrooms or organic harvestables cannot replace it. If you already have the Rayari mission and only need the required materials, ordering the exact quantity can remove the harvesting step from the objective.
Always check the requirement displayed in your active contract before ordering. Star Citizen mission quantities and progression systems can change between patches.
Where to Find Heart of the Woods
Current LIVE data lists microTech as the confirmed natural harvesting location for Heart of the Woods. The fungus grows in cold environments on trees and decaying wood, with current resource data showing Heart of the Woods clusters containing around 3–5 harvestable units.
Collecting 15 units for a Rayari contract can therefore require locating several clusters. Spawn availability and resource quality may also vary between individual finds.
Heart of the Woods Quality in 4.10.1
Star Citizen 4.10.1 expanded the quality system for plant and creature harvestables, and Heart of the Woods is included in the affected plant resources. This means harvested specimens can now have different quality grades.
Unless a specific quality tier is explicitly shown as a product option, this listing covers the selected quantity of Heart of the Woods and does not guarantee a particular harvest quality.
Heart of the Woods Cargo Variants
Heart of the Woods also exists as a commodity in larger cargo containers. Current game data includes 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 32 SCU variants.
This product is intended for the individual harvestable item unless an SCU cargo option is explicitly offered. Large commodity containers should be treated separately from individual Heart of the Woods units used for collection objectives.

Why Buy Heart of the Woods Instead of Farming?
Farming Heart of the Woods requires travelling to microTech, locating suitable mushroom clusters and collecting enough specimens for your objective. A Rayari requirement of 15 units can mean finding several separate clusters before the collection is complete.
Buying the required amount is most useful when the resource is only one step in a larger Rayari progression chain and you would rather continue with missions than spend additional time searching the surface of microTech.
