SPAWN (spôn) n.
a medium commonly used in mushroom growing.
mushroom spawn refers to any sterilised substance that has been inoculated with mycelium.
SPAWN is a London-based fungi project. It aims to explore and share the mighty world of mycology through growth, education, community and experimentation projects, focusing specifically on gourmet mushrooms.
This project was born during the Covid-19 lockdown as a manifestation of my growing fascination with fungi, the desire to share my knowledge, and my need to exercise my creativity during a time when I felt creatively stuck.
When it comes to SPAWN and it's core values, I am particularly invested in expanding the variety of fungi in the culinary world, exploring/utilising low-waste methods of farming, and sharing knowledge to reduce stigma around the fungi kingdom.
Currently, SPAWN is building two gourmet mushroom micro-farms in Barking and in the middle of Dalston with Brunswick East café where they will eventually be holding workshops, webinars and classes.
