Mycelium, nature’s end-of-life cycle
Underground network of fungal threads also termed hyphae. They can lead to a vast network of connections utilized by plants and animals alike.

One spore is all it takes
Mycelium’s fruiting bodies are mushrooms, which each produce millions of spores. Each single spore is capable of developing a completely new mycelium network.

Forests greatest recycler
Mycelia break down organic material of the soil, making its raw materials available again for use in the ecosystem. The discovery of mycorrhizal fungi’s interaction of over 90% with all plant species has sparked extensive research into harnessing mycelia’s natural traits. The importance of nutrient transporters, signaling pathways and cellular processes that underlie symbiosis are beginning scientifically prove the importance of these sub terrain networks.

Soil Remediation
Agricultural production is dependent on the condition of the soil, which over time is depleted due to toxic substances, such as pesticides and petroleum products. Mycelia is able to break down these toxic substances and produce higher yields with fungi and plants interactions. In recent years, new applications of mycelia are being explored, such as mycofiltration for water and growing environmentally useful packaging.
