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!

CLG:  Wickles & Popsicles! CLG Pickup TODAY 3-6pm. Bring eggshells, glass jars, & egg cartons please.


Good afternoon!
Bring those kids and let them get a frozen popsicle. :-)

We have 24 jars of Wickles available today. Get them while you can. Delicious and zesty refrigerator pickles! Only $5 per pint!

We will have all kinds of fresh produce on the extra table today, including zucchini, cucumbers, and broccoli. Come early for the best selection :-)

This is a pickup reminder for those of you who ordered this week. Thank you for your order! You can pick up your order from 3:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. today at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church at 925 Mitchell Street in Conway.

Please wear a mask and keep 6 feet distance. We have volunteers who can bring your order to your car if you prefer. Just call or text 501-339-1039. Tell me your name, where you are parked and what kind of car you are in. Open your trunk for contactless delivery.

If something comes up that you cannot personally pick up your order today, please contact someone to pick up for you.

Remember to bring your EGGSHELLS, glass jars for recycling, egg cartons, and bags for ordered items. Reduce, reuse, recycle! See you this afternoon.

Even if you didn’t make an order, you can come by to shop the EXTRAS table.

Martin's Farmstand:  Things to come


In the coming weeks more produce will begin to be available. We have had some questions at the stand as to the availability of certain produce and would like to take a moment to address those questions. First and foremost strawberries are on everyone’s minds. The berries in the fields are on track for picking around mid june. Greens such as lettuce, spinach and kale are becoming more abundant. We are picking greenhouse tomatoes and cucumbers now (Expect intermittent supply in the stand). Asparagus will continue to be harvested for the next couple of weeks.
As we come into summer, more produce will become available and we will do our best to provide updates as everything becomes available. The farm is in full swing and we look forward to the growing year.

Happy Friday morning, lovely little local market of love customers!

The sunshine is out, many of our vendors have returned from vacation, products are bursting at the market, making it an exciting time, and each and every week with you, the vendors, and the products, I feel like a new masterpiece is created to the backdrop of our lovely market.

Miami County Locally Grown:  NEW Strawberry Delights from Farmhouse!


Strawberry season is almost upon us!!

And Carmen at The Farmhouse Bakery is gearing up -

She’s just added Strawberry Crumble Bread, Strawberry Pop Tarts, and Shortcakes to her Market offerings!!

And a special Thanks to Carmen for all the delicious samples she brought to the last Market pickup – only problem? She ran out of extras for sale a lot faster than samples (and once you’ve had a sample, you’re definitely looking to buy one, even if it doesn’t make it home!!)
