Our Story
Maia Farms began with a challenge, creating sustainable, nutrient-rich food for space. When the Canadian Space Agency and NASA launched the Deep Space Food Challenge, we developed a mycelium-based protein system built for extreme environments. After rigorous testing, we won and now, we're bringing that breakthrough back to Earth. Our technology isn’t just built for space. It’s here to transform the future of food on this planet.

Food First
Taste and texture are critical to product success.
Functional performance and protein quality matter, but products only scale when eating quality is consistent at scale. Maia’s mushroom ingredients are developed to balance technical performance with taste and texture across real food applications.
of
Certifications & Awards
Maia’s mushroom ingredients are produced to meet global quality, safety, and compliance standards required for modern food manufacturing. Vegan, Kosher, and Halal, they are designed to support a wide range of applications and international market requirements.
This work has been recognized by programs including CSA’s Deep Space Food Challenge, FoodTech 500, and the 2025 World Plant-Based Innovation Awards
