Why Mushrooms Are Having A Moment

Explorers Wanted!

Mycelial innovations are solving some of the world's most pressing problems and have been shown to impact every one of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. With projects ranging from Construction materials, biodegradable packaging, water purification and many more.

Growing mushrooms can be done anywhere in the world, with little space, time and resources. Mycelium can be trained to digest even the most resilient pollutants from cigarettes, hydrocarbon oil spills and even nuclear waste.

Here is a curated space where we share the lessons we're learning and uncover secrets from the front line of the mycelial network.

Let's grow, here, together.
