Margo grew up in the Seacoast area of NH where she attended UNH for a BA in Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems. While attending UNH, she was a part of the Agroecology Lab where she assisted with multiple field experiments such as measuring the productivity of cover crops. The ecological lens of agroecology spurred her interest in utilizing mushrooms in agricultural systems. This interest then led her to North Spore where she first joined as a production team member and then later as a lab technician. A typical day in the lab for Margo includes making agar plates and liquid cultures, measuring mycelial growth, and inoculating an array of products.
