In Kanne, Belgium, near the Dutch border, there is a unique and historic mushroom farm.
The Dirk Jackers mushroom farm is the last active underground mushroom farm in the marl caves of Kanne (Riemst), known as a traditional producer of chestnut mushrooms.
The farm is located in the underground marl quarry (Avergat Quarry/Kanne Caves), which provides an ideal, natural climate for cultivation.
Guided tours are offered, providing a unique behind-the-scenes look, learning about the history, and tasting the cave mushrooms.
The mushrooms from these caves are recognized as a regional product.
