how do i go about selling my edibles?
    #5306882 - 02/16/06 12:57 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

i want to start growing some edible mushrooms. i have a little bit of mushroom growing experience already, and im curious as to:

1) what mushrooms would be good to grow for the purpose of selling to restaurants (ie more valuable, but also in demand)

2) how should i go about finding places to buy my mushrooms?

also, what sort of requirments are there for me to sell mushrooms to restaurants, like food service requirments and stuff?

oyster mushrooms in general, pink, yellow, any type as they are tasty and exotic.

most places carry the normal (blue) oyster mushrooms but have never had yellow or pink oyster in stock,
so restaurants are eager to try those - i can tell from my own experience.

also shiitake, maitake if supplied fresh are very profitable.

about where to get ur musjhrooms, check the gourmet forum, people are sharing wedges all over the world
of various edible mushrooms, just post there and ull be taken care of :smile:

euqipments, well, legally u "would" always be checkd by some sort of food aministration thingie,
ud have to sell your hsrooms perosnally to people if u want to avoid that.

good luck !
peace ohm :mushroom2:

I was buying dried morels for years on e-bay. They were from oregon and delicious.

selling mushrooms to a restaurant is a whole new ballfield and requires all sorts of red tape...

^Not necessarily. Look for local resturants, not chains. I have sold to local resturants for years without any sort of liscense or USDA approval. It's all about establishing relationships with the buyers! Farm markets are great too!

cuz growin mushrooms is awesome, and since i spent money on my setup, i wanted to find a way to get a return on it. problem is i dont even like mushrooms lol, but i can grow them (as opposed to attempting to grow regular ol green plants).

so yeah thanks for the info... i know a few people in restaurants...

Mushrooms dried are worth considerably less than their wet equivalents because they aren't fresh

Fresh mushrooms I will assume 1/10th the weight when dry like other mushrooms. That would mean you could sell 10 $40 ounces, yikes there is a lot of money in edibles
