Northeast Georgia Locally Grown:  Market is OPEN for orders!!


Happy New Year 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: 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!

Good evening!

We’re back! Great news, we have a new shipment of seeds in from Southern Exposure and they are ready to order!

Champaign, OH:  This Is The New Year


This is the new year
We are the voices
This is the new year…
(A Great Big World)

Here we are, lovely customers of this little local market…we are just a few moments away from bidding the past year farewell, and ushering in what we can only hope is a kinder, gentler, calmer year.

I hope that you all have had a lovely time the past few weeks. Your market manager took time to unwind, regroup, spend time with my daughter, cater a couple of small get togethers, and now I am landing right back here…ready to take on the new year with our lovely little local band of vendors and customers.

One change to the market!!!

We will now close the market, each week, at 8AM, on Tuesdays, instead of 8PM….and new thing for you to remember, but we can make this work!! And, the vendors will have more time to get it all together for you, at market pick up!!

Also…you will know that my things and Hippie and the Farmer are in vacation mode. I will take everything out of vacation mode, tomorrow, but I am still working on new menu items, soups, and additional bread listings. I know, I know…but, I was busy during my time off…lol.

Happy New Year, my lovelies…we look forward to serving you in 2021! Also known as our 10 Year Anniversary Year as a market!!!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
