GROWER & MARKET NOTES
Greetings from central Florida where your Market manager is in day 12 of “Operation Evacuate Frankie”. I arrived on Ms. Frankie’s due date and as of this writing she has resisted every natural effort to encourage her arrival. She’s going to be one interesting Irish lassie!
Baby watch aside, the change of scenery and catching up with family has been refreshing and I’m eager to incorporate new ideas, new recipes and new flavors into our routine at home. Plus it’s been fun seeing how these city kids are honoring their farm roots. Every week they get a box of organic bounty from a regional farm and cook pretty much everything from scratch. Last night we compared notes on cream of squash soup recipes and today’s yummy lunch was chickpea curry.
VIP, Please save the date for Saturday Oct. 1 as we are in the planning stages of a Saturday Tent Market to get the fall season off to a good start.
MOUNT MORIAH FARMS: Life here on the farm has changed for sure since the arrival of our precious baby! We have finally settled into a nice routine and are starting to get a little extra time to catch up on things. Thank you to everyone who has continued to purchase from us! We have added a few more goats to the herd and as of last week all of the does have hopefully been bred. Lord willing come early 2023 we will have lots of tiny ones jumping around the pasture.
I’m proud to say the day I went into labor I was out there still milking my girls. I would say chores are a lot easier now since I don’t have to worry about weight restrictions or my bump getting in the way. I do have my little one with me during chore time (most days) and have learned how to take care of him and the farm at the same time! I love this new chapter and am so thankful for y’all’s continued support!
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!

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!

Champaign, OH: September!
Do you remember
The 21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away
Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing
As we danced in the night, remember
How the stars stole the night away, oh yeah…
(Earth, Wind & Fire)
Well, here we are, kit kats…ushering in a beautiful day in September! Didn’t it just feel like we were welcoming May??
Anyway, it’s market pick up day, and if you are new, this week, pick up is between 4pm-6pm, this evening, at the farm! If you need a Friday morning pick up, you can let me know! That pick up is between 10am-12pm!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
