At BlobFarm, we entrust a living being to families and schools. That carries responsibility. Here are our commitments.
🇫🇷 Grown in France
Our sclerotia are grown and packaged in France (Paris), not imported in bulk. Short supply chain, freshness, traceability.
🧒 Suitable for children aged 7 and up
Physarum polycephalum is not associated with any human infection in scientific literature, and does not appear on any European regulatory list of hazardous biological agents. It is handled routinely in laboratories and, in 2021, approximately 2,000 French schools were selected for the CNES "Raise your blob" project. To date, no allergens or toxicity are known. Simply wash your hands after handling.
→ Full details on safety, without exaggeration
✅ 100% waking guarantee
Each kit contains at least 2 sclerotia (one as a backup; the Blob Lab Kit contains 4, meaning 2 of each strain). If your blob doesn't wake up within 7 days while following the protocol, we will send you another one — free of charge.
🧪 Lab-grade agar, not a DIY solution
Our kits use lab-grade agar (bacteriological — the real substrate used in labs, not kitchen-grade agar), in sterile agar in a Petri dish. Cleaner, healthier, and better-looking blobs.
🌾 Organic French food
The blob’s menu consists of organic rolled oats sourced in France.
📦 Reasonable packaging
Stable at room temperature = no insulated containers, no ice packs, no excess packaging. Shipped within 24 business hours.
↩️ 14 days to change your mind
14-day right of withdrawal, as provided by law.
🔎 We correct our mistakes
Our scientific content is sourced and regularly double-checked. When popular data about the blob turns out to be a myth, we correct it rather than repeating it. Spot an error? Email us at hello@blobfarm.com — we respond, personally.
