Dothan, Alabama:  M@D Weekly Newsletter - April 3, 2021 and we are OPEN!

WELCOME NEW VENDOR!

We are excited to welcome Mike’s Pet Meats to our Market family. There is much to tell so I’ll start by sharing that your manager met Mike through a breeder of high quality German Shepherds. And if you are familiar with this person no doubt you’re grinning.

Mike’s Pet Meats come frozen, and more importantly for the nutrition of pets, are raw. We will list two different ground meat products: a 30 lb unit that is 100% beef muscle and a 10 lb tube (like a hamburger chub) that is 75% muscle and 25% organ meat (a heart/liver/tripe combo). Based on our experience, pets LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the organ meat blend. Both products come with safe handling instructions and can be thawed to divide, blend with other ingredients or cooked for your pet. Please note that while these are high quality meats, they are NOT prepared or intended for human consumption.

We are aware there is a lot of information, misinformation and controversy about feeding pets raw meat. Some vets say “no”, others say “go for it”, and M@D’s official position is “do your own research to decide for yourself”. To that end here are a few websites that may help:

Here’s my favorite husband carrying the roll of floating row cover.

So far, 2021 is shaping up to be another “interesting” year. This Thursday, Friday and Saturday proved to be unexpectedly cold. With frost tender crops (tomatoes, eggplant and squashes) in the field we had to cover them up to protect them from frost. The weather forecast was for 35, which isn’t so bad, but we are located in a colder microclimate and usually get frost when the forecast is 35. 

We won’t be taking it off till Sunday morning when the threat is over.

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!
