Hey Bo I found this,
Are your materials made out of mushrooms?
”””No. We use fungal mycelium, which is basically the roots of mushrooms. The mycelium acts as a resin to bond agricultural byproducts together into a rigid material. We don’t let the mycelium grow long enough to produce mushrooms. That means you never have to worry about spores or allergens.”””
So I guess it could be any kind of mushroom.
We have some shelf mushrooms that grow in the swamp that are almost as hard as rock, wonder if that would be good to use?

Only 1 question, if it gets wet, won’t it rot since it is made of vegetable matter?
