All family, staff and partners at Carleton Mushroom Farms take this situation very seriously. The personal safety of everyone who enters our farm is of the utmost importance. We have implemented numerous new health and safety protocols on the farm to ensure proper social distancing while working. We are also adamant about requiring staff to stay home if they are feeling unwell. We have increased the cleaning and sanitization of high traffic and common areas on our farm, mandated staff wash their hands for 20 seconds or more with soap and water, require gloves and masks to be worn, and have rearranged harvesting shifts and packing lines to ensure more distance. If you have any questions about our efforts, please do not hesitate to reach out. We thank you again for choosing Carleton Mushroom Farms, your continued support means the world to us during this time.
Welcome to Carleton Mushroom Farms
A Family Mushroom Farm Since 1984
Started in 1984 by Fernando and Anabela Medeiros, Carleton Mushroom Farms has grown from a small family farm to the leading supplier of fresh mushrooms to Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec.
Mushrooms don’t require a lot of land to grow. In fact, we can grow up to 1 million pounds of mushrooms on just 1 acre of land!
3 WAYS MUSHROOMS WILL SAVE THE WORLD!
We Are Recyclers
We help divert tons of agricultural byproducts from landfills each year and turn it into a nutrient rich soil for our mushrooms. Once the mushrooms are harvested we then return that spent soil to the earth as compost.

We Don't Take Water for Granted
On average, it takes 6.8 liters of water to grow 1 lb. of mushrooms; a fraction of the water needed to grow other foods!
