  • Farming the Future: How Two River Mushrooms Scaled from a Garage to National Retail ft. KC Sullivan

    Farming the Future: How Two River Mushrooms Scaled from a Garage to National Retail ft. KC Sullivan
    2026/03/09

    In this episode of Plant Based on Fire, Bryan sits down with K.C. Sullivan, the visionary founder and CEO of Two River Mushrooms. A high school environmental science teacher by day, K.C. has spent the last decade transforming a passion for sustainability into a national consumer packaged goods (CPG) brand.


    Starting with a small-scale operation in his own apartment, K.C. bridged his experience in the restaurant industry with his scientific expertise to fill a gap in the market for local, organic specialty mushrooms. Today, Two River Mushrooms has scaled from shipping containers to a 25-acre farmland preserve in New Jersey, providing functional mushroom broths to retailers nationwide.


    In this episode, we discuss:

    • The Overnight Success Myth: The reality of a 10-year journey from growing shiitakes on logs to national distribution.
    • The Transition to CPG: How K.C. identified a gap in the functional mushroom market and secured a USDA Value-Added Producer Grant to launch a premium broth line.
    • The Science of Scale: Navigating the technical hurdles of retort processing to create shelf-stable, preservative-free, vegan, and gluten-free products.
    • Strategic Partnerships: The impact of industry accolades, such as the SoFi Gold Award, and collaborating with world-renowned vegan chef Derek Sarno as a brand ambassador.
    • Retail Innovation: Creative placement strategies, like cross-merchandising shelf-stable broth in the fresh produce section to drive brand association.


    Key Takeaway for Entrepreneurs: K.C. emphasizes the importance of persistence and passion: "At some point you just have to dig in and start... Just try to immerse yourself amongst like-minded people. You just got to keep plugging".
