Mushrooms
Scientific name:
Ñucanchi Allpa
The forests of Sumaco harbor an extraordinary diversity of species that can provide new opportunities for sustainable bio-enterprises. Among these are edible mushrooms, a resource with significant potential to generate income while promoting forest conservation.
Amazonian mushrooms stand out for their diversity of flavors, textures, and nutritional properties. They are a natural source of protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals and are increasingly valued by specialized gastronomy and markets seeking foods from sustainable production systems.
ALIADOS supports organizations in strengthening this value chain by developing production, commercial, and organizational capacities that enable the responsible use of biodiversity.
Through collaborative work, these bio-enterprises demonstrate that a conserved forest can become a source of innovation, well-being, and new opportunities for the communities that call it home.
