Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market:  Happy Fall!


It’s officially fall! In my book, that means Merry Happy Hallowthanksmas! LOL! It’s a blur from here on out!! I love this time of year and it shows in the farmstand. If you don’t place an order, stop by anytime for some Ellijay apples, fresh figs from the cooler, any of our canned items, eggs, late season veggies, our farm grown white pumpkins and glass gem corn cob décor, Ellijay gourds and pumpkins will be restocked again this week. Also, we have met a wonderful bee keeper not far from the farm that has an exquisite brand of honey. She is a true artist in her craft and produces a wonderful floral honey we will be getting later this week. Watch for it in the stand and in next week’s market.
Vendor spotlight:
If you’re working in the yard and manage a scratch – try Joanne’s Healing Salve! Springwood Cashmere Farm makes an Herbal Healing Salve made by harvesting fresh herbs, dehydrating them and then extracting the medicinal compounds inside the herbs by saturating them in Avocado Oil. You need only a small amount so this .75 Fl. oz. jar will last a very long time. Her family has been using this salve for a few weeks now, and we’re honestly pretty shocked to see that it works far better on cuts and scratches and they heal much more quickly than when we were using bacitracin.

If you get a chance to recommend us – it is always appreciated!

Champaign, OH:  Introducing…


Hello, good morning…your market manager is soon to be home from Oregon.

Thank you, so very much for all of your kind words you have sent. It was a weekend full of emotions, and last night, we left my uncle with a smile on his face, and falling asleep.

On Thursday, you will all have me back at market pick up!

Also, in this blog, I am including an introduction from The Shire Farms, our newest vendor!

And, I know the egg offerings have been slim…across the board, the hens have stopped laying, for a bit. I have added two additional egg vendors with The Shire Farm and Ehlre Bird!

I will see you, soon, sweet customers…

Hey Everyone! Thank you for having us at the Virtual Market! My name is Nicole Doyle and my husband and I own and operate The Shire Farm in Urbana.

My husband was in the Air Force and, as you can imagine, we have moved around a bit. After traveling thousands of miles and moving a half dozen times, we have put down our roots here. We have Our goal is to provide our community with ethically and sustainably raised meats and eggs.

The more we learned about the commercial food system, the more motivated we were to make a better option. We believe that what our food eats and their quality of life matters and makes a difference in the quality of the final product. Our animals get to see sunshine, eat grass, and enjoy locally milled non-GMO feed. This creates a superior product, not only to nourish body, but also to nourish the need to respect life and be thankful for what the animals provide to give us that sustenance.

We look forward to serving you all.

Thank you,

Nicole Doyle
The Shire Farm
