GNOMESTEAD HOLLOW FARM AND FORAGE
About Gnomestead Hollow Farm and Forage
Gnomestead Hollow Farm and Forage is a small family farm focused on growing and providing the highest-quality vegetable ferments, mushrooms and mushroom products we can produce and procure from the WILD. Located along one of the New River's beautiful, winding tributaries, our farm sits on fertile creek bottom and is fed by several mountain spring branches. Utilizing the Principles of Ecological Design, we are able to integrate a low-tech/low-input farm into the natural flow of the land's topography and its abundant resources. All of our mushrooms are grown on organic substrates, and we use no synthetic fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides in our gardens and greenhouses. In addition to offering many delicious varieties of cultivated gourmet mushrooms such as Oysters, Shiitake and Lion's Mane, we also bring you the freshest WILD fungal forage of the forest floor, including Morels, Chanterelle's and Chicken of the Woods. We mindfully forage Chaga and Hemlock Reishi, and grow our own Red Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) which we process and infuse into deeply-satiating, mushroom products such as Gnomebrewed coffee and tea blends. We also produce a delectable assortment of brined, gut-enhancing vegetable ferments. Our kimchis and krauts are crafted with a unique blend of seasonal, gnomegrown and locally-sourced veggies, made in small batches and fermented until they are ready to reach the peeps! We purchase ingredients from local family farms throughout the New River, Roanoke and Yadkin River Valleys of Virginia and North Carolina. We are commited to producing and bringing you the highest quality, most delicious, nutrient-dense vegetable ferments and farmed and foraged mushrooms in the New River Valley and surrounding areas. Please stop by one of our Farmer's Market booths (in Floyd, VA, Blacksburg, VA, and at the Cobblestone Farmers Market in Old Salem, NC) and come see us! Follow us on Instagram: @gnomesteadhollow
