Primarily indoor cultivation of oysters (most cost effective), but also lion's mane and shiitake in lower quantities along with a lot of screwing around with other species for fun. I began construction of my small scale farm just before the pandemic started looking serious (~December 2019), and my business plan was reliant on getting higher-end restaurants as customers (which have fared poorly during this). So it's been somewhat on pause, but I'm hoping things clear up soon, as I've been gathering some nice equipment for good prices over the last year (in large part due to covid, ironically).
It would be great to be able to do assays for protein content at home or for nearly free at a lab to work towards better genetics. An ~86g or "one cup" serving of raw oysters supposedly has around ~3g, and it's worth noting that a raw cup cooks down to maybe a quarter cup or less, which is probably comparatively substantial for those that don't consume meat. The Vitamin D content is also noteworthy, as apparently they're the only considerable source of this in the produce aisle (which I didn't fully appreciate until binge researching last night).
