Mushroom producers are working hard to innovate with new mixes, blends and packs and experimenting with value-added items such as the mushroom burger. They are also working to make mushrooms more sustainable by utilizing stems and other parts of the crop.

Organic mushroom production has increased in recent years and has even exceeded conventional specialty mushroom volume during four of the 10 marketing years between 2012/13 and 2021/22. But that’s no small feat when labor is tight and many farms were impacted by the Coronavirus pandemic.
