Our Roots in the Mushroom Community

CommunityBRD9BKlyn was founded in 2018 with a passion for everything related to mushrooms. From the culinary wonders of gourmet mushrooms to the fascinating world of medicinal fungi, our mission has always been to educate, inspire, and connect mushroom enthusiasts around the globe. Based in Brooklyn, New York, we pride ourselves on bringing the urban community closer to the natural world.

Meet the Founders

CommunityBRD9BKlyn was established by mushroom aficionados, Jamie and Alex, a husband-and-wife team with a shared love for fungi. Jamie, a former chef, discovered the power of gourmet mushrooms in creating unforgettable meals. Alex, on the other hand, has been a long-time advocate for the medicinal properties of mushrooms, focusing on how these fascinating organisms can improve health and well-being.

Together, they decided to combine their expertise and passion into a platform that would offer education, community, and resources for people interested in all aspects of mushrooms.
