GOURMET mushrooms have become a hit in Bundaberg and the surrounds, with a local grower turning a hobby into a new business venture.
Mum-of-three Chantelle Johnson first started Gin Gin Mushrooms when her husband encouraged her to supply her locally grown products to the public.
"I started growing gourmet mushrooms two years ago as it wasn't really something you could buy around here or in the supermarkets," Ms Johnson said.
"After doing some research I found so many recipes using all different types of mushrooms and I became fascinated with the process of how they grow."
