ABOUT US
Darin and Deb Kelly began cultivating vegetables in Indiana in 2006. After 12 years of building and managing a very successful farm, they sold their business, now a large hydroponic vegetable and mushroom operation, to another grower and returned to Darin's home of Ontario, Canada to pursue a long-standing passion: mushroom cultivation.
​
Darin remembers growing his first mushrooms more than 20 years ago, and the process has always fascinated him. Darin and Deb have completed intensive training on the techniques and technologies of gourmet and medicinal mushroom cultivation with Paul Stamets in the U.S., one of the top mycologists in the world. They have also received training from one of the best commercial mushroom growers in the Southern U.S.
​
On Wolfe Island, Kelly's Gourmet Mushrooms cultivates fifteen varieties of edible mushrooms, including blue, pink, and king oyster, shiitake, lion's mane, maitake, reishi, pioppino, and several others.
