About Us

Myco (mushrooms) + Ambrosia (food of the Greek gods) = Mycosia!

Welcome to Mycosia where we are all about connecting you with the wonderful world of fungi!

Our Ethos

  • Our aim at Mycosia is to help people engage with the nature that is all around them in a way that works for each person: We grow fresh mushrooms, grow kits, and make powders for the mushroom fans. We offer educational talks and workshops for schools, community groups, and budding mycologists. And we run foraging walks to help people bring nature's bounty into their every day life.

  • We enjoy working with children to help them engage with, and learn about, fungi and their relationship to both nature and to ourselves. Having backgrounds in forest schools and child education, we work with schools and home education groups to spread the love of mushrooms and plants to the next generation.

  • Here at Mycosia we are part of the neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ families. We are always mindful of inclusivity and look for ways to adapt our services to make them more accessible wherever possible. We believe that nature and knowledge are a right not a privilege. So we welcome suggestions and will happily work with you and your organisation to try to build a workshop, walk, or talk that is suitable for your needs.

We look forward to working with you and spreading the love for these magical, marvellous mushrooms!
