About the Farm

Log-grown gourmet mushroom producer. Top products: Shiitake mushrooms, Oyster mushrooms, Inoculated mushroom logs. Melinda's Market at Kateras Village operates as a sustainable, family-owned homestead and agricultural enterprise specializing in log-grown gourmet mushrooms. Their mycology operation utilizes over 200 sustainably harvested hardwood logs to cultivate thirteen distinct varieties of shiitake and oyster mushrooms, including specialty cultivars like Night Velvet, Bellwether, PoHu, and Blue Dolphin. By utilizing outdoor, forest-floor-simulated environments, they prioritize natural nutrient profiles and intense flavor development over rapid commercial scaling. Beyond their primary mushroom production, they function as a local food hub, aggregating produce, eggs, and herbs from their own farm and surrounding local North Carolina growers. Their business model emphasizes direct-to-consumer relationships through a weekly subscription-based or on-demand delivery service across Clayton and surrounding areas, effectively connecting local households with seasonally curated, organically-grown harvests while maintaining strict quality control and logistical transparency.

I highly recommend Melinda’s Market! I have purchased the mushroom logs from her and they are amazing. She gives very clear directions on how to care for your logs. I followed it and we just began harvesting ours. I can say I am addicted to these mushrooms! They are soooo good! Don’t miss out on the veggies either, because they are fresh and high quality. She is easy to deal with, highly responsive and provides great customer service!

We don’t buy produce anywhere else! I’ve been a subscriber for almost a year and a half now and Melinda has always provided a wonderful variety of vegetables, fruits, farm fresh eggs, and sometimes even locally milled flour. By signing up for Melinda’s subscription box, my family and I have expanded the foods we’ve ate and we have so many new favorites thanks to the amazing menu selection Melinda provides every single week. We recommend them to everyone we know! If you’re looking for healthy, local, organically grow produce and to support an extraordinary hard working family of farmers, do yourself a favor and sign up for the weekly subscription box. You won’t regret it!

We order produce boxes occasionally from Melinda’s Market. The portions are generous and we are usually stocked for a few weeks. Produce is always fresh and great quality. We have even gotten to try new veggies we probably wouldn’t find otherwise. I definitely recommend trying a produce box sometime!
