About Hernshaw Farms
Hernshaw Farms is a family owned and operated gourmet mushroom growing farm out of Hernshaw, West Virginia. They have repurposed an old highway tunnel that is state owned to grow their mushrooms. They are passionate about bringing high quality food and jobs to their community. Using their spent mushroom blocks they hope to help nurture and transform the mine land of the Appalachian communities to farmland. #mineland2farmland
