Mushroom Mine. In upstate New York, the world's largest mushroom farm, in an abandoned limestone mine, harvests about 20 tons daily! A fabulous quantity of the featherweight fungi, in a fantabulous operation. People wearing headlamps work in dark space with mushrooms. Truck with the word Mushrooms on it. Lines of women workers cutting and/or sorting mushrooms. Unusual agriculture.
