What are we even talking about?

Cocoon For Earth’s all-natural, biodegradable coffins are made of mycelium, which is the vegetative part of a fungus, consisting of a mass of branching, thread-like hyphae. Mycelium plays a crucial role in the ecosystem by decomposing organic material, enabling nutrient cycling, and forming symbiotic relationships with plants.

Just like the internet connects people and information globally, mycelium connects plants, trees, and organisms in a complex network of communication and resource exchange.

Mycelium's thread-like hyphae form a vast network that spans forests and ecosystems, enabling plants to share nutrients, water, and information. This network allows plants to communicate with each other, warning of threats like pests or drought, and even sharing nutrients with weaker or younger plants in need. Much like the internet's ability to transmit data, mycelium transports vital nutrients and information through its network, creating a resilient and interconnected ecosystem.

How does it work?

Mycelium coffins create a symbiotic bond between body and earth, allowing decomposition to occur naturally. As the mycelium network spreads, it absorbs and breaks down organic matter, transforming it into nutrients that nourish the soil. A beautiful fusion of life and death, returning us to the very essence of nature.
