Continental Mushroom is a family owned and operated business. It was founded in 1972 and has continued to mushroom since. We employ approximately 250 people from the National Capital region and supply transportation, if required, in our yellow and green "mushroom buses". We think of ourselves as a mini United Nations since we employ many different ethnic groups, but WE get along better.
Family has always been important to us and many of our executive staff started their careers at Continental, as part-time workers while attending high school. Many returned after finishing their education and some even met their future partners here. Now their children are working here part-time while completing their educations.
We've always had a farm dog, or two, and our latest is Rocky who will probably greet you first, should you visit the farm. He is very friendly and sociable and is an expert in maneuvers, ie: getting employees to share their lunch with him!
Continental is pleased to have a very active social committee who hold various functions throughout the year. During the summer we enjoy barbecued hot dogs, hamburgers, and steak luncheons with all the trimmings. The summer finale is everyone's favourite, the August corn roast. Almost every holiday the committee plans something special and we all look forward to these events. During lunch breaks, some of our more athletic employees can be found on the soccer field, in intense competition, until lunch is over and together they return to work.
Over the years, Continental has developed and maintained a very pro-active Health and Safety Committee. Training and re-training is ongoing and very important to us. Our objective is to provide the safest working environment possible, as well as, a pleasant working experience for all.
