About This Guide

Growing is half the job. Selling is the other half.

Fresh mushrooms spoil in a day or two, and unsold mushrooms earn nothing. This guide shows how to grade and pack fresh mushrooms, dry them properly, make mushroom powder and other products, package and label them, meet food safety and KEBS rules, find steady buyers and set prices that pay.

How to use this guide

  • Use Chapters 2 - 5 to handle, dry and process mushrooms.
  • Use Chapters 6 - 7 for packaging, labels, hygiene and licences.
  • Use Chapters 8 - 9 and the sheets to sell, price and keep records.
