After the mushrooms are harvested\, the spent substrate is recycled and turned into compost that is highly prized by local farmers and wineries. Our mushrooms have been certified organic and kosher since 2005. \n

The melon was developed to be grown on the land that’s been in the Crane family for nearly 160 years – in a particular soil\, within a specific climate zone\, farmed in a certain style.” Crane Melon Farm \n  \n
