Mushroom Farms thrive on Coffee Compost

by Brian Yalung on Thursday, March 1st, 2012

Coffee grounds would normally have their share of usefulness when used up. Normally, they are known to pose as good fertilizer for plants and perhaps that is the reason why this Mushroom Farm in Seattle has turned to coffee compost for growing their oyster mushrooms.

Olson Kundig Architects has joined hands with CityLab7an organization that explores issues related to climate change around the subject of food, the Mushroom Farm was placed in the storefront of a retail space.

Housed in a cocoon-like tent made from reclaimed wood and heat-sensitive plastic sheeting, the mushroom farm will open its doors by next month where customers can visit and peruse the rustic mushroom growing bags for their personal needs and use.
