The last VPN meeting, September 2005.
On Friday 16th September, the members and board of the VPN (Dutch Mushroom Growers Association) convened for the last time at a general meeting. The aim of the meeting was to dissolve the association and formally transfer its activities to a specialised group in the ZLTO (the agricultural and horticultural organisation for the south of the Netherlands). The meeting brought four years of VPN to an end.
