Mushroom Cultivation Breakthrough
Morel mushrooms appear only in spring time in the wild. And, as anyone who's "hunted" them knows, they're generally not easy to find. Terry Farms of Princeton, Ill., recently announced a mushroom cultivation "breakthrough" when it developed a year-round morel growing system. It has set up a morel growing facility in Auburn, Alabama, that employs the company's world wide patents on morel cultivation.
In taste tests, cultivated morels fared just as well - and in some cases better - than their wild cousins, the company says.
The facility in Alabama will yield 5,000 lbs. of fresh morels per week when completed this fall.
