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

Statesboro Market2Go:  The Market is Open!


Thanks for shopping with us! Find lots of fresh, delicious, local fruits, vegetables, fresh herbs, eggs, milk, butter, goat cheese, seafood, shrimp, beef, and pork. We also have items that are already prepared and ready to eat, made from local ingredients.

Strawberries, Asparagus, Carrots, and Sweet Onions are coming in now – look for them from Jacobs Produce.

Did you know that Market2Go has items for your pets? You can find pet food, bones, Wagz Dog Treats, and pet grade raw goat milk from Bootleg Farm.

Bootleg Farm and Southern Swiss Dairy both have their products online. They are no longer regulars at the Saturday Market, so look for them here!

Don’t miss Prosser’s Seafood first fresh-caught Georgia shrimp of the season!

Remember we have changed locations for our Statesboro pickup to the Statesboro Convention & Visitors Bureau at 222 S. Main St. Hours will remain the same, and our Sylvania pickup will remain the same at Victory Garden General Store.

Click to read about our exciting changes. We eliminated the annual membership fee and in its place — because we have to maintain support for the market — we instituted a surcharge of 7% on each order, beginning on March 1st.

The Statesboro Main Street Farmers Market is celebrating Mother’s Day with edible flowers at the seasonal eating booth!

Our featured vendor this week is WilMor Farms, a specialty cut flower farm located in Candler County, Georgia on 7th generation family land. They are committed to providing high quality, locally grown flowers utilizing sustainable farming methods. Their flowers are certified American Grown and they are members of Georgia Grown, Slow Flowers, and The Association of Specialty Cut Flower Growers. Their beautiful bouquets can be purchased at the Saturday market or on Market2Go.

Champaign, OH:  Coat Of Many Colors


My coat of many colours that mamma made for me
Made only rags, but I wore it so proudly
Although we had no money. oh I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colours, my mamma made for me…

A shout out to all of our mamas out there, doing what you do, and doing it all with love…

Our market is open, there are new products, added, and we hope that the weekend celebrates you, in the manner in which a hard working mama needs to be celebrated!

And, remember…a mom can be a mom in many forms, to many children/friends/fur babies/strangers…

We hope that you will take a bit of time from your busy weekend, to get your orders in…

XOXO,

Augusta Locally Grown:  THE ON-LINE MARKET IS OPEN AT AUGUSTA LOCALLY GROWN


We are deeply humbled by the fact that our Three Farm Tour & Progressive Meal (May 2019) sold out so quickly! We love the fact that many of you want to come out and meet your local farmers on their beautiful lands. For those who didn’t get tickets this time around, please know that we’ll be organizing another Three Farm Tour & Progressive Meal in Fall 2019.

Big love to Chef Charleen who goes from farm to farm in advance to plan the moveable feast and love on those who grow the gorgeous ingredients.

Happy local eating!
