Let’s get kids excited about sustainable food education!
.Food education plays a vital role in childhood. Life Cykel makes it fun whilst learning along the way in the form of growing mushrooms with the added bonus of raising funds for environmental awareness in schools.
Yes... Mushrooms!
.The team at Life Cykel have created an organic food system that allows everyone to grow edible mushrooms in a tidy little recycled cardboard box that grow mushrooms quite happily inside your homes, greenhouses and classrooms.
Raise important funds to get your kitchen /garden / sustainability project off the ground!
Communicating the benefits to school leaders, class reps, environmental teams or junior land care council representatives are the perfect way to get growing in your school. Let them shine and lead the way to promote sustainable food education and environmental awareness throughout the school whilst helping raise funds for your community.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does it work?
You buy our products at wholesale prices and sell them to your community. You bank the difference! Please know that while we provide suggested selling prices as a guide, your group can set your own prices. We will be happy to provide you with guidance and tips to help you make the most money.
Who can do a fundraiser?
Any Australian small local group affiliated with a charity, school, recreational group/club that has members. Groups must be approved by Life Cykel before holding the fundraiser. It’s simple to start, just fill in the enquiry form, we’ll be in touch and you’ll receive everything you need for a successful campaign.
Why should we choose Life Cykel?
Life Cykel allows you to raise money in a sustainable and educational way. Children gain a home grown food connection and curiosity by growing mushrooms and microgreens by themselves. Life Cykel are connecting people to nature with delicious and convenient functional mushroom products in the forms of drinks and grow at home kits. Promoting a circular economy by using recycled coffee grounds Life Cykel urges others to join the Mushroom Movement and turn more waste into food!
How does the WA Education Department Healthy Food Policy affect Life Cykel fundraising?
Food rewards provided to students must comply with the policy, including food vouchers. Activities and rewards consistent with the policy will also support the school curriculum. Rewarding with confectionery sends the wrong message and reinforces the RED foods, which are already being consumed frequently and excessively by children and young people. Life Cykel fundraisers support this policy.
