The mushroom growing world lost a giant last month with the passing of Pieter J.C. Vedder, April 29, 1929 - April 30, 2024.
His book Modern Mushroom Growing was regarded in mushroom cultivation circles as the bible on the subject - a copy of the book could be found in every mushroom growers library.
In 1982, Pieter received the Sinden Award from the Mushroom Growers Association in the UK - the highest accolade in the Mushroom Industry.
