Our Story
Warren Gwartney aka Mushroom Daddy, started growing mushrooms in a small tent in his guest room during the latter days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tending the fungi became a nice break from staring at computer screens all day, day after day (he’s been building websites and apps for over 25 years, hence Ecropolis, for those of y’all confused about our office).
Warren has always had a passion for science, agriculture, our planet, and well...food! He thought to himself, “Here are these little wildly interesting, adorable organisms that I could cultivate, while learning, connecting with other people, and putting food on the table.” It was really not long before he had more mushrooms than he knew what to do with. So Warren gave mushrooms to friends and neighbors and of course, they wanted more.
