Oh my goodness! George and his staff are amazing! We did a tour and had so much fun. It’s a bit of a country drive, but well worth it. We learned a lot about mushroom cultivation and the war against contamination 🙂 we inoculated a block, brought home some grow kits, and some of the most beautiful lions mane and pink oyster mushrooms I have ever seen.10/10 recommend!George is such an inspiration!

Loved the mushroom tour in the old Memorial Tunnel. Fun for the young and old. The staff is knowledgeable and eager to share information about how mushrooms grow. A hands on experience that the whole group enjoyed.

Ordered bulk, 10 Chestnut grow kits. All were uncolonized and not ready to fruit. Some colonized fully after 6 weeks. 2 have green mold on them and 3 more are having trouble colonizing/battling contamination. I asked for 2 to replace the ones with green mold and out of the 2 new ones, 1 had a hole in it. Very disappointed.

I can’t say enough great things about Hernshaw! I’ve ordered several items here over the past two years. My favorite product is their mushroom salt - and everyone I knew got one for the holidays this year. More recently, as a thank you, George sent me a mushroom grow kit - it was a really fun activity and grew some delicious mushrooms! Products and customer service are both 10/10.

The only place I'll go to for grain and blocks. I've been ordering from George for well over a year now and have never had an issue. I was a newbie mush grower early on and George was extremely helpful, I did just as he advised and got multiple flushes of lions mane, my favorite, on my first try. My blocks always arrive on time, no issues! thanks a bunch George!

I have recieve 3 wonderful mushroom kits from Hernshaw Farms. Following the directions found on the website gets you a couple good flushes from each block. George, the owner, is awesome and enthusiastic about his product. You have to get yourself some of these mushrooms. The lions mane makes the best fish tacos you ever ate. Fry it up in beer batter just like fish, mango salsa, wilted shredded cabbage, siracha mayo. Better than restaurant food!

The shitake log grew only mold. The instructions say this could happen and to email owner for a new one. As per the instructions I emailed the owner. I received no response for a month so I emailed again after making sure I had correct email. Still no response after 2 more weeks, so I called. The owner took down my address and said he'd send a new one but after 2+ more months I've received nothing, and no communication as to why.

If you love mushrooms and have been wanting to breakout of the boring, hum-drum of "white buttons" and "baby bellas", this is your chance!If you're local, these fine folks grow several different varieties of delicious, mushrooms, so you can not only eat good, but also support a local business at the same time. You can find them at the Capitol Farmer's Market and other retailers in the Kanawha Valley!Not local? Worry not! These fine folks also have an online store filled with mushroom grow kits and and other fun mushroom based products, all of which they will ship right to you!George and his team of mushers are the absolute best!

I have been eating these fresh mushrooms since Hernshaw Farms sold at the local farmer’s market, Capitol Market. They are now used by upscale restaurants on their menu. Great people and excellent service.

My mushroom kit arrived very damaged. There is no customer service! I called twice and the recording said “ call Esty.” I called Esty and there was no one available to help nor was there an option for me to leave my number for a call back. These mushrooms were very expensive! The fact that Hernshaw has no customer service is very disappointing.

Pleasure to buy from.Highly competitive pricing and great customer support from George. The pandemic has been understandably difficult but he has kept me up to date on my items.

I had some mold issues with my last shipment, but George refunded me and offered a replacement. If you need to contact them about any issues, your best bet is to call them directly.
