A little BTS with Norman Reedus and Chef John Kerkeslager. This was such a fun day- we talked mushrooms, & explored the farm together. We love when people stop by our little town and we can show them what we’re all about!

Breaking bread and sharing our story was an experience we will never forget. Thank you for riding by!!!!!

Shiitake season never disappoints 🍄✨ These beauties from Ellijay Mushrooms are grown with care in the North Georgia mountains, giving them that deep, earthy flavor and meaty texture chefs dream about. Pan-seared until golden, tossed into ramen, folded into risotto, or simply roasted with olive oil and herbs — shiitakes transform any dish into something rich, savory, and unforgettable. Locally grown, endlessly versatile, and always packed with you in mind!

Case of the Mondays? We got you covered.

The perfect breakfast to a mushroom lover is our Elevated coffee blend (Lions mane to power you up!) along side some granola to start the day. Don’t forget your mug because on Mondays you gotta let that shiitake go!

🍄 Mushrooms Never Sleep — and Neither Does Ellijay Mushrooms! 🌙
Here’s a wild fungal fact: mushrooms don’t sleep — ever. Unlike humans and animals, mushrooms (and fungi in general) don’t have brains or nervous systems, so they don’t need rest. Instead, they’re in constant motion behind the scenes: growing, decomposing organic matter, and even communicating with other organisms through underground mycelial networks. They’re always working — nature’s invisible engines! 🌱
At Ellijay Mushrooms, we see that nonstop action up close, every single day. Located in the beautiful North Georgia mountains, our mushrooms are grown sustainably, using natural methods that respect the rhythm of the land — even if the fungi themselves never take a break. 🏔️
From Lion’s Mane to Shiitake, our mushrooms are harvested with care, packed with nutrients, and grown with respect for the ancient intelligence of the forest. Whether you’re here for health, flavor, or pure fascination, there’s always something amazing happening beneath the surface.
💡 Next time you eat a mushroom, remember: it didn’t sleep to get here.

From log to lunch 🍄✨
These shiitake mushrooms are grown the old-fashioned way—right on hardwood logs here in beautiful Ellijay, Georgia. From farm to table we grow about 5000lbs a week of these bad boys. We love that you can put them in so many recipes, that they’re packed with nutrients, and full of earthy flavor straight from the farm. 🌿

🍄✨ At Ellijay Mushrooms, our logs don’t just grow gourmet fungi—they go full circle! After giving us their all, these hardworking logs don’t head for the trash… they head for transformation. ♻️🌿

Once their mushroom-growing days are done, we compost them into rich, earthy goodness—perfect for feeding future gardens (and maybe even future mushrooms 👀). It’s nature’s way of high-fiving itself. 🙌🌱

Don’t forget you can purchase our compost at the farm store! $12 for a bucket or $37 for a tractor scoop!

From forest to farm, from fungi to fertilizer—every log lives a second life here in Ellijay. Because around here, nothing goes to waste… just back to the earth where it all began. 💚🌾
