Our Legacy, Our Standard
The Story Behind Windmill Farms
Windmill Farms was founded in 1964 with a vision to grow exceptional mushrooms through innovation, care, and a commitment to quality. Over the decades, we’ve grown into one of North America’s leading mushroom producers — proudly serving retail, foodservice, and wholesale customers across Canada and the U.S.
Why Windmill?
Our name is a nod to our roots. Windmill Farms was one of the first mushroom farms in Canada to adopt Dutch-style growing methods — a highly controlled, efficient, and sustainable approach to cultivation.
While many farms now follow this system, few do it with the same precision and innovation we’ve developed over time. And in the U.S., where traditional methods still dominate, our difference in quality truly stands out.
