About Me

My photo
Here I would love to share with you our travels and adventures as international mushroom consultants. MEMOIRS about husband Pieter Vedder, who was a SCIENTIFIC PIONEER in Commercial Mushroom Cultivation Education. His practical handbook is in 9 languages and is called the MUSHROOM BIBLE: https://mariettesbacktobasics.blogspot.com/2020/08/modern-mushroom-growing-2020-harvesting.html

1985 Campbell Mushroom Plant Designed by Pieter J.C. Vedder

 Found this excellent short video that Pieter took in 1985 from the Campbell Mushroom Plant that he designed.


Of course I had to design the window decoration with mushrooms in—and then did hand crochet it.

If you view this 1:53 minute video on YouTube there are clickable links below with info.


This photo is from March 1984, with the hand crocheted window decoration with mushrooms hanging.
But no landscaping being done yet!


Husband Pieter at his desk and you can better see those mushrooms—first quality and broad stems as per mushroom quality criteria!


Sure my Mauzie girl approved ot those mushrooms!
She watched me crochet them... as well as knit the hand embroidered cardigan I wear.
This aerial view of CAMSCO's Dublin, Georgia, farm shows the standardized growing rooms, the tunnel complex and the covered wharf in the background.
As published in MUSHROOM NEWS JANUARY 5, 1985
The growing room doors at Dublin are moveable to accommodate filling with the head–end filling machine.
The working corridor is shown as construction neared completion at Dublin.

  3. Amazing how much work, and technology, goes into growing mushrooms. You should be very proud of yours and Pieter's work.

    God bless.

    1. Dearest Victor,
      Very true and it is quite a science and also very high tech.
      My part was only harvesting and post harvesting... And designing broad stemmed first quality mushrooms to crochet 😏

  6. Dag Mariette,

    Interessant.

    Wat een leuke foto met de hond!
    Ook de gehaakte paddestoelen, geweldig gedaan.

    Ik heb foto's bekeken van de Staat in de VS waar jullie wonen, leuk om eens te zien.

    Fijne dag en lieve groetjes,
    Hilly

    1. Beste Hilly,
      Ja, Mauzie was een mooi meisje van 5 kg en genoot van haar twee jaartjes hier in Georgia.
      Dank je, die gehaakte paddestoelen eerst op ruitjespapier getekend en toen gehaakt en in zo'n spanraam. Weet niet eens of het die nog geeft tegenwoordig...
      Ja, er valt heel wat te bezien hier in onze Staat Georgie die 4.7 x groter is dan Nederland.
      Liefs,
      Mariette

  7. Großartige Arbeit von deinem lieben Pieter.
    Und deine Gardine ein MUSS :-) für Menschen, die mit den Händen gestalten. Ich kann mir gut vorstellen mit wieviel Freude du gehäkelt hast.
    Deine schöne Strickjacke ist der Traum.
    Hier bei uns - 8 Grad und voller Sonnenschein nach langen grauen Tagen... endlich. Tut so richtig gut.
    Viele Grüsse zu Euch. Ich wünsche Euch Fröhlichkeit.

    1. Liebe Viola,
      Danke es sah auch gut aus wenn alles fertig war und funktionierte.
      Ja diesen Fenster Vorhang habe ich sehr gerne entworfen und dan gehäkelt, es gehörte einfach dazu!
      Die Strickjacke habe ich immer noch, es war ganz viel Arbeit aber es lohnte sich.
      Oh, Tagen mit Sonne sind so schön nach langen grauen Tagen.
      Hier blühtet die Magnolia jetzt und es gibt schon einigen Tagen Sonne und bis 21°C mit am Mittwoch und Donnerstag sogar 23°C und dann wieder Regen...
      Liebe Grüße,
      Mariette

    1. Querida Antónia,
      No, en ese momento, hacer un video no era tan común. Así que me sorprendió mucho cuando encontré este breve video.
      También estábamos demasiado ocupados con el nuevo trabajo y luego con el gran jardín y la casa.
      Abrazos,
      Mariette

    1. Dearest Christina,
      Yes, it sure is great for looking back while in retirement.
      Mauzie my Dachshund was the daughter of the Dutch Champion—purebred.
