MycoLogic
MycoLogic is an innovative agricultural technology company rooted in Kennesaw, Georgia, born from a vision to transform specialty mushroom cultivation. Founded by applied microbiologists Dr. Kyle Gabriel and Dr. Chris Cornelison, this trailblazing team emerged from academic research at Kennesaw State University to address a glaring gap: the lack of scalable, efficient solutions for growing diverse, high-quality mushrooms.
With a blend of PhD-level expertise in mycology, controlled environment agriculture (CEA), and cutting-edge hardware-software integration, MycoLogic is redefining how growers—hobbyists and commercial farmers alike—bring fungi to life.
What They Do
MycoLogic delivers turnkey CEA solutions that empower growers to cultivate over 23 varieties of specialty mushrooms—think Shiitake, Oyster, Lion’s Mane, and Reishi—with precision and profitability. Their flagship offering? A semi-autonomous fruiting module that seamlessly integrates into shipping containers or existing spaces, powered by proprietary software and embedded systems.
Beyond hardware, they provide end-to-end support: substrate processing, spawn development, strain-specific optimization, and biological consultation. By turning agricultural by-products into sustainable growth substrates, MycoLogic boosts yields by up to 30%, extends shelf life by 5 days, and unlocks new revenue streams for farmers—all while reducing waste.
Why They Stand Out
Unlike competitors who pivot from hydroponics, MycoLogic is mushroom-first, designed from the ground up by mycologists who live and breathe fungi. Their systems strip away unnecessary complexity, maximizing cultivation space and minimizing costs. What truly sets them apart is their relentless focus on R&D—merging microbiological innovation with tech-driven automation to optimize every strain, every harvest. Recognized as a 2023 Grow-NY finalist (securing 3rd place and $250,000), MycoLogic is a proven leader in sustainable agriculture, already making waves in North America with plans for European expansion.
Why It Matters
In a world craving variety and sustainability, MycoLogic is the key to unlocking the untapped potential of gourmet and nutraceutical mushrooms. They’re not just growing fungi—they’re growing a movement, empowering local communities and farmers to cultivate fresh, healthy food with less environmental impact. With MycoLogic, the future of farming isn’t just greener; it’s tastier, too.
