Start a Mushroom Farm

Big Bunch of Fresh Raw Oyster Mushrooms

I wrote this to share some of my experiences and because I don’t want you to end up spending money and time making mistakes I’ve made already.

The truth is, I think that small to medium-scale mushroom production (5 – 20kg/week) is an excellent way to grow a high-value food crop for local sale, without it becoming a headache.

You can do this as a side-line ‘hobby’ business, part-time income stream, or as part of a project. It can be done in a small space and with little setup cost.

And it can be a lot of fun too.

You get to nurture the growth of a living organism and take part in your local food scene, supplying mushrooms fresher and better than any currently available in your area.

You also get to go up against the Big Food Industry and win, and that is a very satisfying feeling.
