Happy New Year from Hill City Mushrooms!

As we step into 2025, we want to thank you for an incredible year! This was our first year at farmers markets, and at one point, we were juggling four markets at once! It was a challenge, but your support made it all worth it.

This year, we’re making some changes. While we’ll still be at markets like Rustburg and Bedford occasionally—and potentially Lynchburg Community or Forest if accepted (they currently have one mushroom vendor and don’t want more than one at the present moment)—our focus is shifting.

What’s Next for Hill City Mushrooms?

• Direct & Weekly Deliveries: We’re rolling out more delivery options and looking to partner with additional restaurants. Interested in weekly or monthly boxes? Stay tuned or message us to get started!
• Restaurant Partnerships: Know a restaurant that loves fresh, local mushrooms? Tag them or send us their info!
• Local Store Stocking: We’re planning to stock Homegrown Garden Supply in Altavista more often.

Fresh Harvest Alert!

We just harvested 38 lbs of Lion’s Mane mushrooms today! Call us at 434-534-4453 or email [email protected] if you’re interested. These will go fast!

Upcoming Events

We’re hosting an Indoor Cultivation Class on February 9th:

Cost: $25/person ($20/person for groups)

Details: Learn to grow mushrooms at home! The class includes a pre-inoculated grow kit to take home.

Sign-Up Info: Stay tuned for time and venue details in an upcoming post.
