~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Mindfull Morning to You,
Welcome to Edition #1 of what I hope will become a monthly missive detailing the happenings at Mindfull Mycology HQ! Suffice to say, I’m starting off our newsletter with a bang because August was quite the eventful month!
Aside from continuing to build out a new and improved system for the bulk cultivation of Cordyceps mushrooms, I spent much of August spreading Mindfull Mycology’s wings. For two weeks, I road tripped to Telluride, Colorado with my best friend, Jasper – who runs The Fungi Academy— for the Telluride Mushroom Festival, America’s oldest and most famous mushroom festival.
Alongside Jasper, who gave two presentations at this year’s festival, I met a lot of my myco-heroes including Paul Stamets, Dennis McKenna, Louie Schwartzberg (director of Fantastic Fungi), William Padilla-Brown, Tradd Cotter and Giuliana Furci, among many others. I also had the chance to hang out with the founders of two of the largest medicinal mushroom supplement companies in the states, Mushroom Revival and Malama Mushrooms, and to tour the facilities of another medicinal mushroom farm and extraction company, MycoLove Farms, based just outside Boulder, Co. It was a very inspiring, enlightening, and educational month that left me energized and confident about where to take Mindfull Mycology next.
As Mindfull Mycology continues to grow, I have become very focused on ensuring our processes and products also continue to grow and improve. The construction of Mindfull Mycology 2.0, as I’ve been calling it, is well underway. New bottles, new labels, new packaging, new extraction processes, new cultivation processes, a new website… It is a massive undertaking but one I am extremely grateful to be able to pursue.
In the coming months, you can expect to experience the new bottles, labels, and packaging each time an order lands at your doorstep. This fall and winter, we will finish R&D of our new and much improved extraction processes, and improve our website to make it more user-friendly for both you on the front end and me on the back end.
At the Telluride Mushroom Festival, I brought a box of our extracts and thoroughly enjoyed handing out samples. During the 5-day event, multiple people told us it was the best extract they’d ever tried. This is my guiding light. This is why I do what I do. I will not stand pat and rest on my laurels. I will continue to improve and innovate. I am in this for the long haul.
Thank you for supporting the Mindfull Mycology mission to produce the most potent, sustainable, and transparently produced medicinal mushroom extracts on the market.
Until next month…
Mush love,
Sam
