The closed environment farm is solar powered and uses agricultural byproducts as the growing medium. The fungi thrive on clean air and humidity, with no pesticides, herbicides or fertilisers used.
MYCRO is owned and operated by George Stone, who has a lifetime of agricultural experience from eggs to organic vegetables and wool, and now mushrooms. The British born producer spent seven years in NSW before moving to Perth to start MYCRO.
The range of 150g mushroom packs – Mad Good Mushroom Medley, Mad Good Oyster Mushrooms and Mad Good Lion’s Mane Mushrooms – can be found in stores across the state. Some mushrooms can also be bought online.
The mushrooms are also available in food service quantities and can be contract grown at relatively short notice.
