Editorial Review by British Mushroom Journal: P.J.C. Vedder as an Eminent Mushroom Expert, and a Gifted Teacher is Greatly Valued and Admired Internationally

British Mushroom Journal

Good-bye P.J.C. Vedder

As you may have seen in the last number of Champignoncultuur, P.J.C. Vedder retired on 1st August as Director of the Centre for Instruction in Mushroom Production. He will take up a job in the United States afterwards.

In the past years, Vedder has made a considerable contribution to the development of Dutch mushroom production. As an eminent mushroom expert, and a gifted teacher, he expanded the CCO to an institution which is greatly valued and admired, not only at national level, but also internationally. The governing body regard his departure as a great loss to Dutch mushroom production.

This got published in the September 1983 issue from The Mushroom Journal click link for Pdf from International Society of Mushroom Science (ISMS)

Editorial Review by Dr. Murray O'Neil: You Are Both Beautiful Natural Teachers

We both do treasure a letter from the late Dr. Murray O'Neil, then owner of Highline Produce Ltd. Mushroom Growers in Canada.

After we both conducted the Mushroom Technology Transfer Seminar in Vineland, Ontario/Canada we received the above letter.
'Speaking for all of us I just can't express adequately how much we enjoyed and were helped by your visit.
You are both beautiful, natural teachers - a skill possessed of far too few "teachers" generally.

Review Quotation: Pieter J.C. Vedder; One of the Best Teachers in Mushroom Growing in the World

 It is quite special for hearing your boss brag about you at a Conference!

Not just any Conference, but at the 7th North American Mushroom Conference,
March 8, 1988, in New Orleans

Review Quotation: Pieter J.C. Vedder; One of the Best Teachers in Mushroom Growing click below, for hearing those words, spoken by Pieter's boss, on video.
Short clip...Don't forget to click on 'CC' for seeing English caption...

RIGHT ON TARGET

with a beautiful stylized mushroom...

Just some of Dr. Miller's talk in text...

Followed by the top image.

Pieter mentioned, Dr. Miller should have phrased it better, for not growing mushrooms on aluminium racks but instead they grow ON COMPOST! It is the people of course, that make a good substrate (compost) or not...

On the 1st day of the Conference, husband Pieter was a speaker for the 2nd session.

The next day, during the 9th session, Dr. Robert Miller was the speaker about a Large Size Farm. Where I marked ON VIDEO VOICE in red.

That large farm was Campbell Soup's Mushroom Division

A treasure for having these spoken words!

Used them for the Indie Publishing of our new book: modern mushroom growing 2020 harvesting as one of its Editorial Reviews. Amazon is listing full information! Others might omit it...
