All You Ever Needed to Know About Mushrooms… and More!

Two local residents, businessman-farmers and growers will speak about their garden products and provide a tasting, at the Mathews Museum, 200 Main Street.

Christian Brown is owner of “Mush Love in Mathews, Va,” and specializes in growing mushrooms. Colleague Mark Zamanian of “Blessed Harmony Farms,” will join him as they discuss their respective farms and products, and the importance of cooperative farming. Christian has been farming mushrooms in Mathews County since 2022 and is passionate about not only growing mushrooms, but contributing to the health and well-being of his community.  Mark is a “freshly planted” resident of Mathews County since 2024 and quickly got to work growing various crops and feeding the local community delicious and nutritious vegetables as well. Join them as they host a farm-to-table cooking demonstration, sharing their recipes and products!

Both gentlemen farmers are familiar faces at the Mathews Farmers Market. Doors open at 5:30 and program begins at 6:00. There is no charge for this event.
