Akron’s old church now grows gourmet mushrooms

Inside a former church on South Main Street, a spotless, high-tech lab is now producing mushrooms you won’t find at your average grocery store. Epiphany Mushroom, run by Erik and Stacey Vaughn, supplies unique varieties like Lion’s Mane and Black King Trumpet to local chefs and markets. What’s wild is how they’re recreating the forest floor in bags, harvesting about 50 pounds daily, and even turning leftovers into powders and mixes for health and cooking. This is a fresh take on urban renewal and local food—would you try these specialty mushrooms or mushroom-based products? #Religion #Akron #UrbanFarming
