I recently attended a wonderful pop-up dinner hosted by some talented young chef friends — Stefano Forte, Jack Farrelly and Jake McCarthy — where one of the courses included the most mind-blowingly delicious oyster mushrooms paired with asparagus and foraged wild garlic.
After I had demolished this beautiful dish, I found out I was in fact sitting beside the man who supplied the lads with the beautiful oyster mushrooms. Paddy Arnold and his business partner, James Egan, left their careers to open The Upcycle Farm: a truly sustainable business growing mushrooms using discarded coffee grounds. They partnered up with the café One Kind of Folk in Ranelagh, which provides the upcycle farm lads with all their fresh organic coffee ground needs.
