About KULT FARM

KULT FARM makes a true and natural alternative to meat from mycelium solid state fermentation. As a venture-backed business, we are pioneering this approach.

Our mission is to foster the world’s transition to a sustainable food system- without asking consumers to compromise on taste, texture, or price.
