Mushroom Industry Events
The AMGA are dedicated to building the capability, skills and sustainability of the Australian Mushroom Industry, therefore we hosts both large and small events to inform, educate and connect existing Australian Mushroom Growers and Compost Producers. Events are announced throughout the year, and are delivered either online or in-person across the country - at no cost or low cost to AMGA members.
Please note, these events are designed to support the Australian Mushroom Industry, and are not open to enthusiasts or start-up farms.
