About the Farm

Gourmet mushroom cultivation facility. Top products: Shiitake mushrooms, Oyster mushrooms, Lion’s Mane mushrooms. Ellijay Mushrooms is a family-owned, sustainable commercial mushroom farm situated on 171 acres in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in Georgia. The farm specializes in the cultivation of premium gourmet varieties, specifically shiitake, blue oyster, golden oyster, king oyster, and lion’s mane mushrooms. Operating on principles of land stewardship and environmental sustainability, the farm utilizes mountain water and precise climate control to ensure optimal nutrient density and flavor profiles. Their distribution model is dual-pronged: they serve as a consistent supply partner for top-tier restaurants in Atlanta and regional wholesalers throughout the Southeast, while also maintaining a direct-to-consumer farm store for local patrons. Their operational workflow prioritizes strict post-harvest protocols, including immediate refrigeration and precise packaging to guarantee shelf-life longevity. Beyond production, the farm functions as an educational hub, offering self-guided tours and public resources on mycological health and nutrition.

This place is so cool! We made a quick stop today and did the small self-guided tour. The shop is adorable and we can't wait to go back to pick up some shiitakis and lions mane, as well as some spawn. The yard art is too cute, too. Liam was so helpful and polite! It was neat to learn that the mushrooms we enjoy from whole foods in the Florida panhandle came from here. Even if you're not a crazy fungi person like me, you'll find it a worthwhile stop.

I came up this weekend to visit my aunt and Ellijay. They just bought a new house up here and we went to the mushroom farm obviously because we’re obsessed with mushrooms. I have to say the person who is working out front is my absolute favorite person such a great attitude, Energy, And vibes. I ended up buying the mushroom apron because I needed a new kitchen apron to cook in and he folded it up for me and put it in a cute little bag! 💜 Also, I’m a plus size girly so I needed a bigger shirt and he was so sweet and went up to look just to make sure that they didn’t have my size. I always get so uncomfortable to ask that, but he was more than happy to help which made me feel so comfortable💜 Also going to see the mushrooms growing in the greenhouses was probably the coolest thing I’ve ever gotten to Experience!! Thank you so much for having such a cool place! And thank you for hiring amazing people💜
