GrowGood Mycelium

GrowGood is an ambitious open-source digital platform built to empower farmers to reorient their practice towards regenerative agriculture. We are part of a movement and a broader shift toward planetary civics grounded in what Zehra Zaidi & Indy Johar (2024) describe as two defining realities: Firstly, there is an awakening of planetary consciousness regarding the scale of planetary challenges. Groups of stakeholders have recognised that there is finite time to correct destructive pathways and have begun to experiment and generate new propositions. Secondly, in computational advancements we may finally have the tools to match the scale of planetary challenges and build bold, ambitious models of care to repair and sustain our planet which can provide new insights and ways of thinking, being, learning and self-learning.1
