At an organic farm just outside Monterey, Calif., a super-eco building material is growing in dozens of dark ened shipping containers. The farm is named Far West Fungi, and its rusting containers are full of all sorts of mushrooms-shiitake, reishi and pom-pom, to name a few.

Underground, they form a vast network called a mycelium.
