It’s that Tuesday groove, and it’s time to finish up those orders, by 8am, this morning!!
The days are getting sunnier, and that means the market will be a nice sunny drive, on Thursday, to come out, load up on the local goodness, and go about your weekend, full of local love!
Here is your reminder…go, order…

Old99Farm Market: Old 99 Farm week of May 6 2023
Thank you to several readers who commented about the post last week alerting you to Robert Lustig, MD, being interviewed on The Great Simplification/Nate Hagens.
Topic was food and health.
Lustig was asked what was his advice to avoid chronic, ie recurring illnesses. He said it in three words: Eat Real Food.
That’s why I do what I do.
We have lots of fresh greens, some roots and a stem (asparagus)!
Surf to the online store here to place your order. Store pick up Thurs 4 to 6 or by arrangement.
Here’s another essay I commend to people from the blog site of Ugo Bardi, Prof of Chemistry in Italy.
“the future is not a single path toward catastrophe. It is a garden of forking paths. We are bound to follow one of these paths: we don’t know which one yet, but not all of them lead to the Seneca Cliff. In the transition to a renewable energy system, we can adapt, reduce demand, improve efficiency, deploy new technologies, and simply be happy with a more limited supply of energy. It is only the rigidity of our mental models that make us think that there are no alternatives to fossil fuels.”
Healthy Eating!
Ian and Cami

Middle Tennessee Locally Grown: Some of Our New or Returning Items
Middle Tennessee Locally Grown market
will be open for your orders till Tuesday evening at 10 pm.
The market opened for ordering, as usual, on Sunday morning, and will close at 10 pm on Tuesday. Please support our local farmers, all of whom live within thirty miles of our market. Shorten your supply chain! Shop local!
Please share this mailing with a friend and invite them to become a customer and share in all this local farm goodness.
This is a half-hearted attempt at finding some/most of the newer items on our market. No guarantee of thoroughness is included! My busiest time of year has me running pretty tired.
If you would be interested in posting these on local facebook groups for me, so I can get more than 4 hours of sleep tonight, please text or email me. I have a list of groups to which a post could easily be made. I just have no energy to do it.
OK, I was silly to think I could get all the new items in one newsletter! Next week I will introduce two new farmers, and do justice to their beautiful offerings. For now, these are some items deserving of your attention. Please look through the whole list!
(Row 1) Endive, Red Russian Kale, and Spring Lettuce from CS3 Farms.
(Row 2) Strawberries, bunching onions, and organic radishes from Country Road Homestead.
(Row 3) Yellow Jubilee tomato plant from Cheryl’s Neighborhood Garden, several varieties of heirloom tomato plants from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse, several types of vegetable seedlings from McPeak Homestead.
(Row 4) “Garden in a Vase” from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse, Pork chops from Weaver Farms, Pork cutlets from Sow’s Ear Piggery.
(Row 5) 30 lb Beef Deal from Triple T Cattle Farms, Sirloin Steak from Solace Farm, Broiler Chicken from Wayne Diller.
(Row 6) Pecan cookies, Maple Budino, and Berry Oaty Muffin from Merriwether Bakes.
