with your company, "Back To The Roots"

and what it stands for. I wish everyone

would want to for a company that would

stand for "sustainability, progress, and

social responsibility". I have been growing healthy food for years by composting my waste, so I know it works, and I'm elated to learn that it also makes for a viable business model. Keep up the great work!”

See What Bloggers Have To Say:

	"I must admit that I was a bit skeptical that this would work. This is mainly because I have no idea how mushrooms work... But no! About 24 hours later, I noticed some little spores sprouting on the surface... And so began the mushroom explosion. Mushrooms, it turns out, grow faster than anything I’ve seen." - Nick Evans - Macheesmo		"Aren't they gorgeous?! We were pretty proud of ourselves. We actually grew mushrooms, harvested them, and ate them. Amazing." - Lindsey Johnson - Cafe Johnsonia
	"This evening we harvested the first batch and sautéed them to put on top of our burgers. I was a bit scared to eat something that grew out of coffee on my dining room table, but they sure tasted good – like good ole ‘shrooms!" - Kath Younger - Kath Eats Real Food		"We are not big mushroom lovers in our family. I'm the first to admit it... I am so proud to have used mushrooms that we grew ourselves." - Brandie Skibinski - The Country Cook
	"I really love this product – it is fun and easy to use!... Everyone that came over to our house and saw the kit was really intrigued by it, and even more so when they found out it was made from recycled coffee grounds. Who wouldn’t be? That is just awesome!" - Jenn Campus - Left Over Queen		"How were they? Very very cool and as easy as can be. The shrooms grew by leaps and bounds. Every morning the kids would ooh and ahh and, frankly, I did too! Plus, they grew like some sort of really cool modern art structure." - Michelle Mackenzie - Green Phone Booth
	"These oyster mushrooms were wonderfully nutty and (of course) ultra fresh since I "harvested" them literally right before cutting them up and throwing them on the grill pan. It was a great complement to the random "whatever-meat-I-have-in-the-freezer" meal." - Jennifer Che - Tiny Urban Kitchen
