Mushrooms have never been in short supply thanks to the farms of Chester and Berks County.

According to Kathi Lafferty, the owner of The Mushroom Cap in Kennett Square and wife to a mushroom farmer, Pennsylvania is the number one state for growing mushrooms - with an astounding 68 percent of the nation’s mushrooms coming from the commonwealth.

“Mushrooms are grown all over the U.S. but the majority of them come from Pennsylvania,” said Lafferty, adding that California grows and sells the second most mushrooms in the U.S. – at 14 percent.
