About Murphy Homestead Goods, LLC
Nestled in the heart of Murphy, NC, our micro-farm is dedicated to the stewardship of the land, protection of pollinators, and the production of sustainable, small-batch goods crafted with traditional care.
Homegrown Beginnings
SINCE 2026
Murphy Homestead Goods, LLC grew from a vision of stewardship in North Carolina. Our tale is woven from the land, connecting raw honey from our hives, sun-ripened orchard fruit, and gourmet log-grown mushrooms. Protecting pollinators is vital because bees do far more than make honey. They help sustain the fruits, vegetables, flowers, and wild plants that feed our families, wildlife, and local ecosystems. Our beekeeping nurtures healthy local bee colonies while boosting the vitality of our gardens and reminding us that saving the bees means protecting the future of the land itself. These treasures reflect a commitment to sharing sustainable, handcrafted harvests with Murphy neighbors in every season.
Meet the HAMs behind the Harvests
Murphy Homestead Goods, LLC is owned and operated by licensed Amateur Radio Operators, beekeepers, and homesteaders, Michael Graves (KE4EST), and Anesa Nahas (K4AA), in the heart of Murphy, NC. At the heart of Murphy Homestead is our families, our communities, our connection to the land, and our commitment to building a healthy, balanced ecosystem where everything works together to support strong honey bee colonies. From tending gourmet mushroom beds whose mycelium can help support bee immunity, to caring for free-range heritage chickens and guinea fowl that help control pests like small hive beetles and larvae, each part of the homestead plays a role in protecting and strengthening our bees. We cultivate a wide variety of gourmet mushrooms, fresh eggs, artisanal honey, seasonal fruits, herbs, vegetables, homemade sourdough breads, vanilla extract, handcrafted beeswax candles, and more. Every harvest we share with the Murphy community is rooted in sustainable farming, artisanal quality, and a deep respect for the soil, the bees, and the land that makes it all possible.
Organic Integrity
We nurture our land and products with absolute respect for nature, avoiding synthetic chemicals and embracing traditional, sustainable practices.
Artisanal Quality
Every jar of honey and loaf of bread is a labor of love. We prioritize slow-fermentation and careful extraction to ensure the highest quality harvests.
Our Values

We share our journey openly. Our customers know exactly how their food is grown and harvested, building a foundation of trust and shared values.
