Living Material

What is Living Material?:

20 lb bags of our MycoComposite™ material (hemp hurd and mycelium blend) already hydrated and growing for 5 days. Ready to break up, add 1.5 cup of flour, and pack into molds to continue to grow for 5 more days. Because this material is alive, it must be kept refrigerated and used within 2 weeks of receipt.

Due to reduced shipping days, please order with 2 weeks notice! See our Shipping policy and plan lead time accordingly. If you have an urgent deadline, please email giy@ecovative.com to let us know so we can best accommodate you.

This is a living material and requires refrigeration and expedited shipping.
We ship this product overnight to arrive the next day to shorten the length of time spent outside of refrigeration. Refrigerate immediately upon receipt until ready to use. 

Only ships to the USA.

Also available by the pallet (100 bags.) For large-quantity orders, please contact us directly at giy@ecovative.com.
