The passion for things done well!

Passion and care for good things

GBC Funghi delle Terre di Romagna operates in a territory extraordinarily devoted to taste and to the most typical food and wine productions. Our greenhouses are located just a step away from the sea of ​​the Rimini and Riccione Riviera, immersed in a countryside at the foot of the first hills of the Valconca, among olive trees, vines and the castles of Montefeltro. An oasis of quiet surrounded by plants of all kinds and – above all – by peace.
Here – among old cheesemakers, rows of Sangiovese, new farmhouses or historic mills of extra virgin olive oil – our fresh mushrooms are cultivated with care to always make the maximum quality of the product and food safety.

An adventure born 50 years ago …

GBC Funghi delle Terre di Romagna is the organization of producers that brings together the majority of mushroom growers in the province of Rimini. The long history of mushroom cultivation, in the current territory of the province of Rimini, starts more than 50 years ago, and it is no coincidence that a small territory and, certainly, without a primary vocation for agriculture, has developed a sector agricultural so specialized. In fact the climatic and logistical conditions have favored the cultivations of mushrooms in the province of Rimini, which today represent 75% of the production of Emilia Romagna.
