Northeast Georgia Locally Grown:  Market is open for orders!


Locavores, Northeast Georgia Locally Grown is open for orders!

Go to the market >>
Produce
Baked Goods with Organic Ingredients
Pastured Meats
Cultured/Fermented Foods
Pastured Eggs
See All Products

Market is open Fridays at 9 p.m. through 9 p.m. Mondays!

Thank you for choosing Northeast Georgia Locally Grown as a way to support your local producers. This online farmers market allows you to buy directly from multiple farms committed to chemical-free and local produce all year long! CHEMICAL-FREE means produce and pastures grown without synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, or insecticides. LOCAL means within 80 miles from the market pickup locations (usually much much closer). Do you know someone who grows chemical-free food in the area? Get them in touch with us. Know someone who wants fresh food? Spread the word. Put the two together, and that’s growing organically!

PICKUP TIME is Wednesday from 5-6:30 p.m.

If you do not get an email ORDER CONFIRMATION after you finish the checkout process, then your order is NOT complete. Head back to the market page, and your order might still be there waiting for you to check out! If you have any trouble or questions at all, we are here to help; simply reply to this email.

Once you place an order, be on the lookout for the order reminder email on Wednesday with further pickup and payment notes. Thanks for your support!

Old99Farm Market:  Old99 Farm week of Aug 6 2023


I’m having some glitches with my image software so won’t be able to include pics this week.
Suffice to say, the tomatoes look great. I harvested a 1007 gm yellow beefsteak variety today, the Kellogg’s Breakfast.

We’re having very little disease or pest pressure so far this summer. The wise ones say that’s what happens when your plants are healthy! Just dealing with mildew on the cucumber leaves. Also learned that having more snake habitat helps reduce slug pressure, because that’s what snakes eat!

Did anyone read the essay on easy food storage baby steps? I hope it helped nudge you along that direction. Will bring great peace of mind imo.

Our offering: celery, brocoli, frilly kale, Nero kale, Rainbow chard, Tiara and Savoy cabbages, Tokyo Bekana chinese cabbage, beets, bell peppers, sweet bulb onions, scallions, fennel, green garlic, baby lettuce mix, baby buttercrunch lettuce, radishes, rhubarb, carrots, collards, cabbage collards, leeks, basil and herbs. Surf to the online store here to place your order. Store pick up Thurs 4 to 6 or by arrangement.

We’re getting lots of cukes and picking them early so they’re just right for pickling.
If you want lots, say several pounds or a 6L basket, send me a message.

Yours in health,
Ian, Cami and Adam

Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market:  This Week at the Market


I’d like to take a moment and thank each and every one of you that support this market. It is my passion and gives me such joy to meet new customers at the stand and ones who have been coming for many years! That keeps me going!
I am, however, going to step away from the kitchen this week. I have fallen way behind on removing the old and planting the new crops, and maintaining the property. I will have the stand stocked, but no preorders for this week so I can concentrate on making sure we have plenty in the ground growing for the fall.
On a good note, I discovered the fig trees have been growing wildly and have small figs on the new branches! So, we actually WILL have a small harvest this year. I will be offering these to our online market and Facebook followers only so you will get them if you want them! I am guessing it will be mid September when they ripen.
Have a great week!

We’ve also got enough colors of Celosia to make a rainbow! Order a Farmhouse Bouquet to bring some color into your home or office!

Sow’s Ear Piggery: We will be off the Market this week to restock new pork products. Please look for newly stocked pork cuts next week.

Yentz Family Farm: We have several items to select from but this week we would like to highlight our delicious Hand Pies, choose from Peach, Blueberry or Apple! Order single or a combo. Delicious with morning coffee or just a snack during the day. We have several delicious vegetables this week available, Cherokee Waxed Beans, Blue Lake Beans and Red Burgundy Beans, these are available by the pound and we offer a TRIO of all three. Jalapeno, Serrano and Anaheim Green Chili hot peppers to spice things up.

Quarter Spring Farm: we have refreshed our inventory on the Stone’s River market. We have updated pictures and added a new selection of lamb cuts, including sirloin chops and neck slices. We also have a very limited selection of free range Muscovy ducks available exclusively at this market. And as usual we have a plentiful plethora of pastured poultry products for your palate’s pleasure. We also have our usual assortment of goat milk soaps, shampoos, and lotions. So sooth your skin with our suave selection of splendid scents.

Rus-T-Acres: All our Black Angus Beef is USDA Certified pasture-raised:
Highlighting some of our products this week. Chuck Roast is cut from the shoulder and neck region of the animal. used for pot roast or, when cubed, stew, because the connective tissue melts as the chuck braises and self-bastes the beef, making it very tender. Double Ground Beef we chose this blend because of the tender, juicy, flavorful outcome of the product when it is cooked. It is a great blend for Hamburger steaks, chili, soups, and numerous other recipes. Medium seasoned pork sausage has the perfect blend of sage and pepper to earn the medium status. It also has enough fat for frying up perfectly. I fry my sausage and then use the grease for making my breakfast gravey or for seasoning my cornbread batter.

Some of our produce this week:
White Patty Pan Squash, AKA 10 toes look like the yellow sunburst patty pans but they are white. They taste more like a zucchini but are a little sweeter. They can be prepared in a variety of ways. Cut the top off like a pumpkin, remove the seeds, and stuff them with whatever you like, and then bake, broil, or steam them. You can cut them up and fry or sautee them. Sunburst Patty Pan Squash produces glossy buttercup yellow, scalloped edge squash that has a mild, buttery flavored tender white flesh. They are also referred to as 10 toes because each one has 10 scallops. It is a fun food to work with and can be prepared in a variety of ways. You can cut the top off like a pumpkin, remove seeds, and stuff with anything you would like and then bake them or steam them on the grill, fry them, sautee them. Just any way you want to cook them will be good. Japanese Eggplant: prepare in various ways including grilling, which will give them a smoky flavor!
