Joyful Noise Acres Farm: The wider road...
One of things I have loved about driving to our farm is the country lane. One of the things our customers and friends have not loved is the narrow country lane. We now have a wide country lane for all to enjoy. The road is finished and the bank is protected with the beginning of newly planted grass. No more worrying if you are going to meet someone along the way, if you do there is plenty of room to pass.
There is also plenty to choose from on the market. We have fresh butter and cheese in. We have newly processed chickens, pork and beef. Rendered pork lard for your frying and sautéing needs. Lovely spices and seasonings from Home Appetit and much, much more.
This week we want to highlight Snack N Joy Gluten free baking. Aimee makes a wonderful, fresh milled flour mixture called BAM, from Buckwheat, Amaranth and Millet. She makes delicious muffins, cookies, brownies and cheese crackers. Not only does she have the finished baked goods but she is also offering the GF flour and a baking mix that you only have to add an egg, liquid and oil to and any other ingredients for sweet or savory baked goods. This is very easy to bake with and the results are delicious and healing. This week she is offering a free sample of her product when you buy either the flour blend or the baking mix. I hope you give her products a try. you will be surprised at how delicious gluten free baking can be.
Don’t forget honey orders are due this week! Let me know if you need an order form.
Blessings,

Champaign, OH: 59th Street Bridge Song
Slow down, you move too fast…
You got to make the morning last…
Just kicking down the cobble stones…
Looking for fun and feelin’ groovy…
(Simon And Garfunkel – The 59th Street Bridge Song (feelin’ Groovy))
So, I have always been told to slow down…take it easy…let yourself rest…
Ummmm…I don’t know how? I am not kidding. I have been a busy queen bee since I was able to walk. Everyone wanted to calm me, constrict me, make me relax. It’s still like that. I run into people who ask me why I do so much? Why am I always busy? I should take time off. I should go on a nice long vacation. I should, I should, I should.
It’s enough to drive a girl insane. Very few people know what drives your market manager. Very few people know what makes me tick. Very few people know that I cannot relax until every little detail is finely tuned.
I get bored, I like to push the boundaries, I hated coloring inside the lines, and I abhorred being ordinary.
And so…enter this little local market of love, it’s own built in eccentricities that I love, and a whole lot of go power!
Go power gets things done, makes people aware, and makes them want to see more of what this market continues to say…Love, Be The Local Love, Be The Local Light…I cannot be still until I know everyone is vibing, grooving, dancing to the local beat.
Get ready to groove your orders. We know that our county fair starts, tomorrow, but there is no reason to not take time out from the busy week to order. Once you order, you can just rest. We do all the work. Slow down, you move too fast…we want your orders, any way that you feel like giving them to us!
With much love in the air…I open up this week’s market to the mellow tunes of Simon and Garfunkel AND of the silent little local song of love that comes from our hearts…
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…

Group Buy: Wilderness Family Naturals
This weekend we will be taking orders for organic coconut oils and pantry items from Wilderness Family Naturals. These items include healthy oils, spices, cacao, grains, rice, coconut products, natural sweeteners and skin care products. We will also take orders for bulk Organic Mixed Nuts.
Case Pricing for Organic Mixed Nuts
In order to get a reduced price on the mixed nuts we need to order 25lbs as a group. Includes the following Raw, Certified Organic, Soaked and Dried Nuts: Pecans, Almonds, Walnuts, and Cashews.
These certified organic nuts have been soaked as Sally Fallon and the Weston A. Price Foundation suggests, and then dehydrated at low temperatures.
Eating nuts is a good thing. In July 2003, the FDA released a qualified health claim stating “Scientific evidence suggests, but does not prove, that eating 1.5 ounces per day of most nuts, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease.”
All prices on the website include discounted bulk pricing, taxes, fees and shipping.
THIS ORDER WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE TO PICK UP THIS TUESDAY
This is a pre-paid pre-order. Payment is expected by this Tuesday. I will send out an prior to pick up when it is available. Due to shipping it will take at least 2 weeks before you can pick up.
Market News

My Daily Bread will be back next week!
My Daily Bread will be listing their items every other week. Feel free to double up on items that you would purchase weekly. Breads, tortillas, muffins, and other items freeze well.
Group Buy – FCLO
Fermented Cod Liver and other Green Pasture products that were ordered will be available this Tuesday for pick up.
Vacation Hold – Produce Boxes (repeat)
Just a reminder if you are going to be away on vacation please make sure you put a “vacation hold” on your Nature’s Garden Express produce box if you are scheduled to receive one. You can simply do this online or give NGE a call and they can set it up for you. If you get an email from them on Friday with your box menu that means your box is NOT on hold and will be delivered Tuesday. As always you can delete your box order before their Monday morning deadline.
Grass Fed Ground Buffalo and Pastured Chicken Breasts are AVAILABLE (repeat)
Both items are back in stock! These are 2 of the market’s best sellers so get them while they got ’em! Thanks for your patience!
Mountain Fresh Creamery (repeat)
We will no longer have Mountain Fresh Creamery on the market. The supplemental feed they give their cows contains GMOs. I am currently looking for a new dairy to provide us low temp pasteurized milk. I will keep you all updated. In the meantime, please consider Cedar Rock Dairy and Lil Tots Estate.
New Items
New Items this week on the market:
Bread – NO-GMO White Whole Wheat Chemical Free Bread from Lizzie’s Pantry (Unsliced for freshness) This delicious, freshly baked bread will be available every other week.

CSA Farmers Market: Growing Season Update Aug 6, 2015
It is GARLIC HARVEST TIME! The mild temperature is perfect for garlic digging. The farmers have begun to dig out the bulbs and cure them. Select varieties will be ready in about 2 weeks.
The weather is staying just warm enough at night to kick tomato production in to gear! White Pine Farm and Law family Farm have several varieties available. They range from salad and slicers to bright orange and canning varieties!
Many of the farms (Law Family Farm, White Pine Farm and Whetham Organic Farm) are picking beans right now! Fresh beans are nutrient rich and add a beautiful variety of colors to your meal! All beans sold here at the CSA FARMERS MARKET are hand picked carefully to be sure not to break the beans. This helps to ensure the freshest quality and taste! It takes hours to harvest the tender beans hidden beneath the leaves.
Almars Orchard apples are now being harvested. They have Lodi apples. The ones they have available are weather kissed. These summer apples have a short shelf life. In a week or so expect to see Paula Reds and possibly Jersey apples if the quality is up to Almars standards!
