Merbein Mushrooms Pty Ltd at Merbein South has been growing mushrooms since 1970. The farm produces 20 tonnes of fresh, quality mushrooms on a weekly cycle, starting with the composting process. Fifteen temperature controlled growing rooms are used in the process. Merbein Mushrooms have a staff of 60 and pick six days a week, delivering by refrigerated transport to the Adelaide and Melbourne wholesale markets. 115 cubic metres of spent mushroom compost is produced weekly as a by-product of the mushroom growing process.
