Since 2007, Ecovative has been the leader in making products from mushroom roots, called mycelium. We use these natural mushroom materials to create eco-friendly packaging and materials that replace plastics. Grow.bio is our shop where you can buy the same mycelium hemp blend we use in our packaging directly from us - the original mushroom experts with nearly two decades of experience and know-how.
