They were a rather large farm but mostly regional. The largest shut down is probably Top Hat in Michigan.

Plus pretty much all the farms in CA.

It's unlikely that any cricket farm will be in operation 6 months from now unless someone comes up with a way of killing the virus. The Europeans were unable to overcome the virus 8 years ago so it is unlikely we will either in the short term.

Is there any Europeans here that can comment on the status of House Crickets in Europe today?
