Geoff Price and the American mushroom industry - part one
Geoff Price Giorgi Mushroom Company.
Geoff Price may be the son of our own mushroom-growing legend Graham Price, but he has definitely forged his own way in the industry. A mushroom grower since he was eight years old, perhaps it is not surprising he’s now not only technical director of Giorgi Mushroom Company in Pennsylvania, but also chair of the American Mushroom Institute. Interview by Dr Jenny Ekman
In part one Jenny and Geoff talk about growing up in the Hawkesbury, the differences and similarities between the Australian and American mushroom industries and the unique mushroom economy in the United States.
This podcast is part of the Hort Innovation funded project MU21003: Mushroom industry communications programme. It was funded through the Mushroom levy fund and contributions from the Australian Government.
