Back to Roots: Grow Your Own Mushroom Kit Giveaway!




Back to the Roots is a home grown food-focused start up in Oakland, CA.  They make mushroom kits with which you can grow oyster mushrooms from recycled coffee grounds right on your kitchen counter! Their mission is to make food local and personal again. 

The kits are a great way to teach kids about growing their own natural, fresh food and eating locally (you can't get more local than your kitchen counter!). The mushrooms start growing 10 days after opening the kits. For some cool visuals of how they grow, check out the time lapse video:



Features include:
  • Grow up to 1 1/2 lbs of tasty pearl oyster mushrooms per box
  • Multiple crops (at least 2, though some have got up to 4!)
  • Grow your first crop in as little as 10 days!
  • Just 3 Easy Steps - Open, Mist, and Harvest (spray mister included).
  • All indoors - just set on a kitchen window sill and mist twice a day (mister included)
  • The soil inside is 100% recycled coffee grounds - safe & sustainable
  • 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed
