Our co-founders Chiara and Alessandro understood the importance of guaranteeing a protein source for everyone.

It all started in 2015, when Chiara and Alessandro were watching  a tempeh that was fermenting during an experiment, without any serious aim, when they suddenly understood what the underlying magic of this white fragrant and microscopic mushroom had created. Moreover this was all achieved with minimal energy use as the mushroom (Rhizopus Oligosporous) only requires 24 rest & nothing further.

The relationship between what they had just experienced and the concept of a sustainable food source  was immediately apparent, tempeh had to be promoted & the message had to be spread.
