Having a hard time finding a gift to cheer you or someone spirts up during these cold winter days. I have several Original Water Color prints available. Prints will come inside a protective sleeve with a foam backing (which is not attached) to ensure each print stays protected and have a few already in frames
Fungalicious:
Many have asked ‘What can I do with Mushroom Powder’? Use them to help bring more flavor to soups and stews without adding texture or meat products. Sprinkle across a salad for an extra ‘wow’ factor. Mix into meatloaf or burger patties to add an extra depth of flavor without necessarily adding bulk or texture. Sprinkle in pasta sauces for added depth of flavor.

Looking for a special gift, dessert or something that is Gluten Free, I have just what you need; Apple, Pumpkin Pie, GF Peach Cobbler, Fudge, Dark Chocolate Covered Cherries, GF Bread, GF Blueberry Muffins, GF Angel Food Cake, Chocolate Cake and Cupcakes.

GROWER & MARKET NOTES
Mayim Farm sends word they are waiting for their small leafy green vegetables to grow large enough for harvest. Such is the case with winter vegetables. While they DO grow, it’s not always as fast as we would like! That being said, Danny’s Greens has lettuce and green onions (scallions) available this week.
The chickens at Horton’s Farm keep outdoing themselves! Yesterday 20 eggs were collected! It has to be something with the sunshine we’ve enjoyed this week. They’ve surrounded and kept Ros company several afternoons while harvesting pecans. So much fun seeing the dog, Mopsi, the chickens and the kitties interact and enjoy each others company on such days.
In case you missed it last week Duck Eggs from M@D friend Don Smith, listed under Seasonal Groweors, have been reduced. This is a great opportunity to try them and find out for yourself why he can’t seem to keep up with demand.
Mr. Paul Anderson of Casablanca Ranch graciously gave permission to share some of his Casablanca Cowboy Report. We hope this bit of sustainable gardening and his corresponding take on life from a few weeks back brings you a smile.
“I have ordered 6 Elberta peach plants due by Monday. Me and Bogart and ole Author (Ritus) dug the holes yesterday. I do not want to put a thirty dollar plant into a thirty cent hole. I have a mulch pile that I mix topsoil and chicken, cow and horse manure with a tiller. (I have an ample supply of that here on the farm). I will mix that with the soil I took out of the hole and firm it around the root system, then use a paper feed sack to cover it to restrict grass from growing in the hole, and put bark mulch over it to hold the moisture. Then as with all plants I will tend it as it is needed but it is up to the provision of the Lord for it to live, to grow, and to produce fruit. (Is this not also the case with our living and growing and producing fruit for our Lord. I love this life on the farm. It is like the life of a Christian, if I simply stick the plants into the ground and abandon them, they will not make it. Without water and proper soil and fertilizer, weeding and pruning they will wither up and either die or be of no benefit. Very similar to our life as a follower of our Lord, we need constant tending and care to thrive and to bear fruit for the Master).”
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!
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: Northeast Georgia Locally Grown will continue to help bring the best selection of local and chemical-free foods to you and your family as long as our volunteers feel comfortable and safe. Thanks for recognizing we can all do our part in operating in the safest way possible for upcoming markets. We are and will continue to operate under CDC and local guidelines to the best of our ability and knowledge. 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!
