Heritage Farm :  Delivery Delay


Farm truck is currently running about 15 minutes behind schedule.

Statesboro Market2Go:  Market2Go is Open!


Come shop this week at the Statesboro Market2Go! Place your order by Tuesday midnight for pickup Thursday afternoon.

If you don’t have time to cook, you can still have a delicious meal made from market products. Purchase a healthy prepared meal from Victory Garden, 4 & 20 Bakers, Caribbean Feast, or a soup stock from Ma’s Country Pantry. Add an easy salad with your choice of romaine, green leaf, red leaf or mixed lettuce, and bibb. You can enhance your salad with all manner of goodness, including crispy peppers from 24/7 House, feta cheese from Bootleg, or pecans from Jacobs Produce.

Try this recipe for a Mandarin Pecan Salad and top with a Honey Citrus vinaigrette.

Don’t miss the last weeks of seasonal citrus bounty! Get Ruby Red Grapefruit or Tangos Mandarins from Bulloch County’s own Franklin Farms. The Tango Mandarin is similar in taste to the orange drink Tang, which was popular in the 60’s and made famous by astronauts on moon missions as their breakfast drink of choice. The Tango is the size of a tangerine,but sweeter with no seeds.

Enjoy sustainable seafood! Purchase from our annual winter stock of Doug’s Wild Alaska salmon while it lasts, Or order Georgia Wild Caught shrimp or NC coast flounder from Prosser’s Seafood.

We offer a full line of dairy – milk, cream, butter and cheese from Southern Swiss Dairy and Bootleg Farms. Purchase free-range eggs from four local farms! Meat eaters can order beef, pork, lamb, goat or chicken from our Market2Go vendors.

Didn’t put up enough seasonal produce? Jacobs produce has frozen peas, blueberries and strawberries that preserve the taste of summer.

Looking for more? We’ve got coffee, honey, grits and cornmeal. Plus homemade dog biscuits, candles, lotions, and soaps.

Thank you for your support of the market and of our dedicated local farmers and producers.

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 or call Andrew at 770.530.3287

Champaign, OH:  The Month Of Love!


Full speed ahead, smashing right into the loveliest lovely month of them all…February!!

I know, it all drabby drab winter, but at the heart and soul of the month, we have romance, songs, and the hope of love…

Well, what better way to usher in the month of love, the weeks of love, into this little local market of love, than with a love ballad…

Let’s kick this month off with a favorite. The song, the back story, all parties involved…

Layla…Eric Clapton wrote one of the most famous classic rock love songs for Pattie Boyd, who at the time was married to Clapton’s pal George Harrison. It was the title song of one of the three albums Clapton recorded as Derek and the Dominoes. The song title was inspired by a 12th-century poem about a woman (named Layla) and her unrequited love. It appears on the 1970 album “Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs.”

I love a good rock love song with my idol in the middle of a love triangle between two of the world’s leading men of music…

Anyway, let’s turn all of these love vibes to our market. Let’s just flood this market with all the love you can give us…

We open the market, tonight, with much love for you, our customers, and we hope to see much of you…all month.

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam
