On May 8, Laurel Valley Soils, in Landenberg, PA graciously hosted the official start of ICAW 2023. The kick-off event included a visit to Laurel Valley's compost site as well as a tour of a local mushroom farm. Laurel Valley Farms is located in the official “Mushroom Capital of the World” and is the largest single-site mushroom composting operation in North America. They supply compost to grow 11% of the mushrooms grown in the US. CREF would like to thank Laurel Valley Soils for hosting the event as well as Rep. Christina Sappey for attending and sharing the importance of the compost industry to Chester County, PA. Thank you also to everyone else who attended, which included representatives from U.S. Rep. Chrissy Houlahan’s office, the American Mushroom Institute, the EPA, and many ICAW volunteers and ICAW Committee members.
