Formulation & Philosophy
The objective at The Bristol Fungarium is to grow local mushroom strains that have developed over millions of years in an attempt to be mindful about our impact on the local flora and fauna.
- With up to 2 billion ash trees going to perish in the next 2 decades, anything they can do to mitigate the unforeseen consequence of introducing different genetics into a highly complex ecosystem - they feel obliged to do.
- That's why over a third of the mushroom strains they grow at The Bristol Fungarium have been cloned from local specimens.
- Once harvested, their medicinal mushrooms are then dried in an infrared dehydrator at exactly 34°C to maximise the quantity of bioactive compounds that make their way in to the medicinal range
- They are currently working towards lab testing all of their products in collaboration with University labs, as well as a range of fully organic medicinal tinctures.
