Stringent Testing ???? We are dedicated to producing the highest quality, certified organic functional mushrooms and we employ strict, rigorous quality controls throughout our mushroom cultivation and processing. Our team manages environmental conditions such as temperature, moisture and CO2 levels in the grow rooms to ensure that we continue to meet our stringent quality standards. We utilize 3rd party lab testing to help ensure that our mushrooms are tested for heavy metals, pathogens, pesticides and herbicides, and other potential contaminants. #StringentTesting #QualityMushrooms #GrowingEnvironment

Sustainable and Scalable: The Future of Mushroom Cultivation Earlier this year, we reached a major milestone with the completion of the expansion of our headquarters and processing facility in Vista, California. This facility was designed to provide ideal conditions for our proprietary solid fermentation process, support our ability to innovate both M2 products and processes, and significantly expand production capacity. At approximately 155k sq. ft., the facility allows us to retain true vertical integration and full chain of custody throughout the process - from spores to finished, packaged products. ?? #MushroomCultivation #M2Ingredients #FabulousFacilities
