The Local Mushroom Farm Behind Your Favorite Restaurant Dishes
Two River Gourmet Mushrooms has grown from a home hobby to a 25-acre Millstone farm supplying restaurants, markets, and more than 2,000 retail locations nationwide.
The first time I visited KC Sullivan, founder of Two River Gourmet Mushrooms, his entire operation fit inside a retrofitted shipping container tucked behind White Chapel Project in Long Branch.

At the time, it was an impressive feat of engineering—a climate-controlled mushroom farm built inside a steel container—and a fascinating look at growing gourmet mushrooms locally year-round.
Fast forward five years, and that tiny shipping container has grown into something much bigger.
From a home-growing hobby and a small shipping container in Long Branch to a full-scale farm in Millstone Township, Two River Gourmet Mushrooms has come a long way.
Today, Two River Gourmet Mushrooms operates from a 25-acre farm in historic Millstone Township,producing USDA Certified Organic gourmet mushrooms for restaurants, grocery stores, farmers’ markets, and consumers nationwide. What began as a passion project has grown into one of New Jersey’s premier specialty mushroom farms, while staying committed to sustainability, education, and exceptional quality.
