A symbiotic approach to wellness
At Humdrum, we bring together people, places, and raw ingredients to honor the power and purity of nature.
Behind every step of our process is intention. Our mushrooms are grown and cultivated with care exclusively on our Los Angeles farm. Using sound wave technology, we gently extract a balanced blend of compounds known for their diverse range of benefits, from immune health to cognitive support. This potent extract goes directly into our chews, which are then sweetened with seasonal organic fruit, handpicked at peak ripeness from some of California’s most beloved family farms.
Just as a mycelium network exchanges nutrients and resources between trees and plants, our process reflects the interconnectedness of our community and the natural forces that sustain us. It’s a symbiotic approach that guides everything we do at Humdrum.
We are all connected
Sustainability goes beyond our ingredients and packaging. It begins at the root of our network.
Our network, our ingredients
Mycelium networks play a vital role in nature's ecosystems, intricately threading everything together to sustain life. Inspired by these interdependent connections, our approach to sustainability is reflected in every choice we make. We rely on our network to grow our mushrooms and locally source ingredients, keeping our carbon footprint as low as possible.
Our materials
Our compostable packaging is crafted with the same intention and thoughtfulness that drives our production. Just as mycelium breaks down organic matter to support new growth, our packaging is designed to return to the earth and honor nature’s cyclical, regenerative power.

A genuine love for our community
We've been serving our local communities alongside these farms for years at farmers' markets. We've cultivated strong relationships with the growers and have built a loyal customer base who value the products we create together.
The power of sonication
Extracting only the good stuff using sound wave technology.
Mushrooms are packed with powerful health benefits, but our bodies can’t access these without breaking down the tough cell walls made of chitin. Using sound wave technology (or sonication), we extract essential compounds like beta-glucans and triterpenoids, making them readily available so your body can absorb the benefits and you can experience the full vitality of mushrooms in each gummy. Additionally, ultrasonication is faster, more energy-efficient, and produces less waste.

Our farm
Our chews begin with mushrooms grown at Fungi Valley, our family-owned farm in Los Angeles.
We believe in complete transparency. We manage every step of the process — from cultivation to harvest — to ensure unmatched quality. The mushrooms we use are traced back to our family's mushroom farm (Fungi Valley) and never outsourced. We proudly avoid overseas powders or fillers, ensuring pure, potent mushrooms in every gummy.
What started as a curiosity and passion for mushrooms has grown into the heart of Humdrum’s mission: bringing together people, places, and raw ingredients to honor the power and purity of nature.
