Foothills Market:  The Market is Open!


Is it spring? Is it summer? Or is it still winter?

Mother Nature can’t seem to make up her mind, which is why farmers have greenhouses, poly-tunnels, and row cover! That makes it possible for Foothills Market to bring you fresh greens, no matter what the weather wants to do.

We have a variety of spring greens on the market again this week, to go along with our offerings of locally-grown meats and free-range eggs. Fill your online basket between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m., click the “Place your order” button, and we’ll have the order ready for pickup on Thursday afternoon.

Just FYI – we’ll soon be closing down this market and shifting over to the farmers’ market on the courthouse square for the season. The first weekend of the downtown market is May 4. Hope to see you there!

Green Acres Atkins:  Opening bell!


Good morning!

Here at green acres we are thankful the lord is providing rain! But wow we are also thankful for our high tunnels! We have a lot of rain and it is slowing us down out in the field but don’t fear the tomatoes in the tunnels are over a foot tall and doing great!

We are also starting to get a few strawberries so those will soon be on the market!

Happy shopping and hope you have a great week!

Good morning!



Yes, we have market news this week. But I participated in the Barn Sale at Farrar Hill Farms this Saturday, and have not had time to put together a newsletter. I just wanted to let you know that the market is open for ordering. Look for your newsletter later this afternoon or evening, but in the meantime, here’s a hint: check the “What’s New” section at the top of the market page. Feel free to place your order, and if the newsletter shows something you missed, you can place a second order anytime before Tuesday evening.

Don’t forget about our Tullahoma Friday pickup location, if that’s more convenient for you. Please encourage your Tullahoma area friends to check out our fantastic market!

Blessings,
Linda & Michael

Dothan, Alabama:  041319 M@D Newsletter



We are open to accept orders.
Orders close Tuesday at 5pm
If you’re wondering about that “M@D” bit, its only about good healthy food!
Market at Dothan uses the word “Sustainable” over “Organic” because you can grow organic without being sustainable, but you cannot be sustainable without utilizing organic practices.
