From humble beginnings to a mushrooming business!
Life Cykel was cofounded in 2015 by Julian Mitchell and Ryan Creed when they decided to collect and recycle coffee waste from Australian restaurants and cafes and use it to grow gourmet mushrooms. Once the coffee waste had been used to grow the mushrooms, it was then repurposed again as an organic fertiliser, and the resulting gourmet mushrooms could be sold back into the community. The pair were creating the perfect closed loop system - a circular economy - and so began their mission to inspire new attitudes towards food production, waste products and, of course, mushrooms!
Bringing the power of mushrooms to the world
Life Cykel has evolved into Australia’s preeminent mushroom biotechnology company, equipped to harness the great potential mushrooms possess for health and wellness. By setting a high standard for commercial responsibility with the highest possible ethos for sustainability and equitable enterprise, Life Cykel’s mission is to produce one-of-a-kind products to those who wish to upgrade their wellness and reach their true potential.
