Nuvedo (Nu + Ved) comes from the etymology of “new” and the “old”.
Taking traditional knowledge and rewriting that narrative with new technology, to bring it to Indians. Nuvedo is a story of a million Indians shifting the paradigm of their own narratives to awareness-based consumption with mushrooms at the forefront.
Through evolving the ecosystem and inculcating practices of a community, Nuvedo is here - to use emerging technology and make available exotic mushrooms.
