Mushrooms harvested from a growing bed are deposited on a carrier having a plurality of individual recesses (13) each for receiving an individual mushroom (14) by supporting the under-side of the cap with the stalk projecting downwardly. The carrier, when fully loaded with mushrooms, is moved into a compartment of a multi-compartmented storage structure configured to allow the flow of air therethrough. The structure is then moved into a cold room so that all of the carried mushrooms are cooled down to the optimum storage temperature. Only when the mushrooms are to be despatched for sale are the carriers removed from the storage structure and the stalks of the mushrooms trimmed to the required length whereafter the mushrooms are suitably packed for despatch and sale.
