In the footsteps of
Foodsporen originated from an enormous passion for the mushroom. I keep being fascinated by these beautiful 'creatures' who are neither plant nor animal. How they literally find themselves under every footstep we take on this planet. A planet whose bottom is filled with a gigantic network of their mycelium and the air we breathe filled with millions and millions of their spores. Mushrooms nourish us, heal us and regenerate forest waste into nutrients for the soil. They are indispensable in an ecosystem and, above all, indispensable is our 'ecosystem'. Mushrooms have been used by humans for thousands of years and they have a prominent place in Chinese medicine, for example. They are also being rediscovered in Europe. Recent scientific research confirms what our ancestors had known for a long time. Namely that mushrooms contain an unprecedented amount of nutrients that can not only heal us, but also save us a lot of trouble in the form of illnesses. With Foodsporen we follow in the 'footsteps' of ancient medicine, which we combine with the most prominent science and technology.
