All year long – in an exclusive partnership with Kroger – the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is profiling the Georgia farms and farmers that keep us fed. In March, they visited Ellijay Mushrooms in Gilmer County. Inspired by the visit, they assembled some delicious recipes that feature mushrooms. Be sure to check out Georgia on My Plate throughout the year to learn more about Georgia farms and to get great seasonal recipes.

If you wanna try for yourself the recipe is on our website!
