Restore Motes Creek!

Haw River Mushrooms farm, located in Saxapahaw, NC, is owned by Ches and Laura Stewart, and run with our farm manager Annie Seifts, and a talented crew of production and farmers market specialists. They specialize in growing Hardwood Mushrooms including shiitake, lions mane, oyster, cinnamon cap, and reishi. In October 2020, they moved to a new farm location on 18 acres at 1122 Ossabaw Way. Motes Creek, a 5.39 tributary to the Haw RIver, runs through their property, and an early goal on this new land is to use mycoremediation and soil restoration techniques to support his important waterway. CEO Laura Stewart commented on the project saying, "We're really excited to work on this project. Working with mushrooms has shown us how they can be a solution to so many big problems, from feeding a growing population to cleaning up our soil and water. We are so grateful to have the Haw River Assembly so close by to help us figure out how to make this all happen and measure its effectiveness."
