The start-up idea seemed so simple, the founder’s backyard and the surrounding area bordered the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, which has a broad diversity of fungi and the exact soil microbe ecosystem described by Dr. Ingham as the Soil Food Web.
How hard to could it be to cultivate the soils and make them available to local organic farmers? After all, a handful of healthy soil has literally billions of species. Across the street from the backyard where SymSoil started was a woodpile, which over a decade had sprouted dozens of different types of mushrooms. There was two feet of redwood litter next to the carport and rotting oak trees on the nearby trails.
At the time of SymSoil's conception, thoughts of a facility with thousands of cubic yards in annual production and hundreds of thousands of dollars-worth of equipment weren't on the radar. SymSoil was not yet connected with the the multiple regulatory agencies with responsibility for protecting the public from runoff water and waste streams, as it is now.
