Teacher BioThis all started in a closet in Ocean Beach, San Diego.. No, really. Max was making substrate blocks out of a home lab and fruiting oyster mushrooms in a makeshift grow closet. After outgrowing the closet, the passion project graduated to the garage. A whiteboard was filled with potential names, and Golden Mushroom Co. was chosen. Max got his permits, and was able to sell his mushrooms to the public.
