GROWER & MARKET NOTES

YUMMY ANNOUNCEMENT!

One of the privileges our business license gives us is that we can purchase things for resale. As a direct farm to customer business we’ve never considered it till recently after Viki Richter (Richter Farms) connected us to a resource that sometimes offers bulk fresh organic foods. So we’ve taken the plunge and are listing organic beets and organic cabbage this week. These items will be sold cost plus 10%.

Food is such an integral part of our day to day lives that we take a lot for granted. We stumbled on some fascinating information this week about some of the culture and history of food in our country and how that affects what is on our grocery store shelves today. Rather than condense the podcast and omit valuable information we’re sharing a link to the whole enchalida. We advise that if the opening question and remarks are boring for you to hang in there as it gets far more interesting the longer these guys talk.

You may use THIS LINK to go directly to the youtube version of this podcast as shown. It is also available on Spotify. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did and come away with a new appreciation for small farms and small farmers trying to make a difference.

And by way of shameless promotion, the Chasing Leviathan podcast covers a wide range of topics doing nothing more than asking questions, listening and learning. Take a look. You may have even read a M@D newsletter produced in that studio.

We thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible!

Martin's Farmstand:  Yes we are open on Columbus day.


Hello, Yes we are open on Columbus day. We had several frosts which trim the list back however there is still lots of food here including greenhouse tomatoes, cucumbers, and lots of peppers. All the fall stuff like spinach, kale, leeks, celery, brussel sprouts etc. is in full swing. My Dad is steadily working at finishing the apple picking. We have over 100 bushels of nice organic heirloom apples in the coolers. We finished the sweet potato harvest last week with a yield of about 6,000 lbs which is right about average with what we normally expect in our somewhat short cooler summers. We plan to do the main irish potato harvest starting late next week and into the following week as weather permits. Potatoes store better if they can remain in the ground for 10 days or so after the vines die (the frost kills them) before they are dug. Enjoy the beauty of the fall color. Daniel

Northeast Georgia Locally Grown:  Market is open for orders!


Good evening Locavores, Northeast Georgia Locally Grown is open for orders!

Go to the market >>
Fresh Vegetables
Clean Meats
Baked Goods with Organic ingredients
Gluten Free goodies
Pastured Eggs
See all products

Market stays open from Fridays 9 p.m. until at least 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 right after you order then your order is NOT complete. Log back in 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.

COVID19: Thanks for recognizing we can all do our part in operating in the safest way possible. Be on the lookout for the order reminder email with any changes to pickup or ways you can help minimize risk for our volunteers and each other. Thanks for your support!*
