Mushrooms were created to be a bridge between life and death in the Earth's ecosystem.

FUNGI'S ROLE IN NATURE

Fungi plays a vital role in Earth's ecosystem as powerful decomposers. When trees fall and begin to decay, mushrooms break down tough organic matter that most organisms can’t digest. Through this process, they recycle nutrients back into the soil, enriching forests and supporting new plant growth.
