Champaign, OH: Mr. Tambourine Man
Take me for a trip upon your magic swirlin’ ship…
Putting a little bit of Dylan into your Sunday morning, and, with this cold day, I am going to settle in to practice with all of my musical instruments. And, I am sure of no surprise, one of those is a tambourine…
Anyway, getting on with this market, this cold day, and the fact that you have a whole Sunday at your fingertips, why not use the time to place your orders?
And…to warm your soul, your market manager has updated all quantities of Cosmic soups! I must have been lulled into the long vacation we took from the market, over the holidays, and I never checked that I was out of all soups!
Anyway…so much to offer on this market, but you first must order to get to enjoy it all…
XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

News From Our Growers:
Short Mountain Cultures: Product Highlight this week, what is beet kvass? It’s a delicious savory probiotic beverage! Tastes salty and sour like kraut with the earthiness of beets. Start with a 2 ounce shot or add to salad dressing, seltzer, or other juices or smoothies. “This drink is valuable for its medicinal qualities and as a digestive aid. Beets are just loaded with nutrients. One 4 oz glass, morning and night is an excellent blood tonic, cleanses the liver and is a good treatment for kidney stones…” -Sally Fallon in Nourishing Traditions. Short Mountain Culture offers several different flavors of veggie kvass including beet, ginger beet, golden beet and kimchi juice.

Adventures in Pickles
Market Chitchat
Grower Notes
EASY PEASY PICKLES
What follows originated with a sisterly Christmas gift – a jar of homemade pickled radishes with carrots. They were DIVINE. The recipe was a text of a text of a text of a photo from a book or magazine. . . (don’t you love technology?). Baby Sis had changed the recipe and used Swerve instead of sugar. We changed it up by using watermelon radishes from Avalon and skipping the carrots.
Mom is in the kitchen making another batch today. We now know to expect the pretty pink of the watermelon radishes to change the brine, but the taste more than makes up for the aesthetics. No doubt this method can be used with other root vegetables so if you try something different before we do, let us know and we’ll share it with the rest of our Market family. (Ros)
1. Prepare 4 lb of radishes by peeling and slicing them, Slices a bit smaller than ¼ inch thickness work best.
2. Mix 4 tsp Swerve (or other erythritol product) with 2 tsp salt. Set Aside.
3. Mix 1 cup Swerve (or other erythritol product) with 2 cups warm water (to dissolve) and 2 ½ cups white vinegar. Set Aside.
4. Sprinkle sugar/salt mixture over prepared radishes. Massage it into the vegetables till they are pliable and bend easily. Rinse well and drain.
5. Pack vegetables in clean jars with lids. Pour liquid mixture over the radishes.
6. Seal Jars. Refrigerate overnight before using. The flavor improves over time and the pickles keep 4-6 weeks in the refrigerator.
MARKET CHITCHAT
Wasn’t yesterday about the most perfect Market pickup day ever? Even though it was chilly the wind was kind and between the beautiful vegetables and great company we could not ask for a lovelier day or better folks to spend it with. We really do love serving you!
THANK YOU for your kind patience with the Market opening late last week. The back story is that at 3pm Saturday Ros knew she was in trouble as the the approaching weather had already eliminated all internet service upstate where she was. Thankfully Viki Richter agreed to open us on time, but by 5 pm the severe weather was in south Alabama giving Viki technical trouble as well! Just goes to show that sometimes no matter how well we prepare nature still shows us up!
We have a few new products this week. You may view them near the top of the Market Page.
GROWER NOTES
We have the best Growers in the Wiregrass! Please learn more about them on our Grower Page.
MAYIM FARM Mayim Farm will be taking a break this market cycle while attending the annual “Southern Sustainable Agriculture Working Group Conference” (SSAWG) and the “2020 Organic Agriculture Research Forum”(OFRF) in Little Rock. Mayim Farm received a scholarship from the Organic Research Foundation to attend the conference and forum. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to participate in, and learn more about the latest regenerative and organic practices in 2020. We strive to grow the most nutrient dense food and medicine for our clients through these breakthrough practices. We’ll see you again in a couple weeks rested and with new ideas to implement.
AVALON FARMS Avalon Farms
We’ve seen the last of the Arugula and Spinach. This 2 weeks of warm weather has signaled them to produce flowers and eventually seeds. That is the plants goal to reproduce itself by producing seeds for next year. The Kales and Senposia are handling the weather better and are not flowering.
The chickens have enjoyed the warmer weather and are laying like champs. Please buy more eggs!!! I’m swimming in them over here. : )
Greenhouse construction continues…hampered by Mr. Farmer’s off farm job and rain. (Seems to always rain when he’s home. I smell a conspiracy.) (Mr. Farmer, “The power of prayer.”)

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
