Our oyster mushrooms grow on the coffee grounds harvested, by bike, from our Brussels partners. In fact, coffee grounds are the perfect base for growing oyster mushrooms thanks to the numerous microelements contained in it.
Organic residues and a part of the oyster mushrooms production rest is also used to create a biodegradable material, able to replace plastic. We use it in our packaging and ecodesign projects.
As they grow, oyster mushrooms turn the coffee grounds into an excellent compost, 100% natural, the “mushpost”. Once we produced oyster mushrooms, we give this mushpost to farmers and to Parckfarm, the urban garden near our workshop
We create them to measure, and they can also be customised by laser engraving. Packaging made from myco-materials is fire and water resistant. Produced in a circular way, they also require ten times less CO2 and eight times less energy than the production of polystyrene foam.
Do you have an unused cellar? Cellars offer an ideal environment for growing mushrooms and we would be happy to share our production techniques with you. Or would you like to become an expert in mushroom production in a circular economy and develop your own business in your town? During our training courses, you will discover our growing methods and our advice on how to start your own profitable business from A to Z. Our next training course will take place on 30 january 2025.
