Cultivation of  mushrooms

The mushroom cultivation unit is located at a safety distance of 7 km away from the substrate production unit, thus ensuring conditions of high hygiene and reduced risk of infection during pasteurization and incubation. The location at the foot of mount Dirfis has been selected on the basis of scrupulous environmental criteria and is characterized by lush vegetation and by the ideal geographical conditions creating the appropriate micro-climate for mushroom development. Situated far away from car and industrial pollution, the unit respects all required standards for the production of pure natural products free of any external pollution.

One of the most impressive phenomena in nature is the rapid and sudden appearance of mushrooms. This phenomenon depends directly on the evaporation rate of the mycelium’s growing fruitfulness and its osmotic pressure. By applying the ideal ventilation, environmental temperature and relevant humidity into the cultivation cabin, we are constantly trying to keep the evaporation rate within required levels.
