VIP DELIVERY NOTE FOR OUR ENTERPRISE CUSTOMERS: Viki R. will be managing pickup for this order cycle and there will be NO Enterprise deliveries. We apologize for any inconvenience.

D’s Jellies: I am making D’s Hot Pepper Jelly almost daily now. I wait for all of my peppers (jalapeno,  cayenne,  sweet banana, & bell peppers) to turn red. This gives my jelly its red color. I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the Fall Festival at Dothan Nurseries on Saturday, September 28. I will have samples for tasting! Dianne Herring

Katherine’s Kitchen:
“Eternal are thy mercies, Lord,
Eternal truth attends thy Word.”
Maybe when Isaac Watts penned this, he too was listening to the downfall of an especially needed rain!
In addition to the rain that has blessed us all this week, God blessed me with something new that will help double my bread availability. A new oven! With it I can now make up to four loaves available per pickup. And maybe experiment with something more. . . .
“Why only four,” you ask? “Why not more, can’t you do more batches?” Well, you see, I’m not going to be one of those cheater bakers who sells you bread that’s already a day old. It has to be baked within 12 hours of pickup to ensure that you get fresh bread, truly fresh. And that usually means the ovens are firing up at 4am on Friday morning. If your bread’s not fresh, is it really worth your money?
Thanks to everyone who has bought one or even two loaves in the past. I am always honored when I run out!
~Katherine’s Kitchen

Mt. Moriah Farms:

We are so very thankful for the rain over the last couple of days! We have gone from milking 14 does to 4. The reason being, they are getting ready to kid out in November! We did have a doe kid out two weeks ago and the picture below is of her kids.

They are absolutely beautiful in our opinion. Both are boys, with the names of Milky Way & Snickers. We are working on a fall line of fragrances for soaps & scrubs so stay tuned!  This week’s featured soap is Oatmeal, Milk & Honey… Oatmeal & Honey Goat Milk Soap is packed with rich moisturizers, vitamins, and minerals your skin craves. Sweet notes of honey mix with natural grains of oats to complete this extra gentle exfoliating bar. 
Oatmeal & Honey Goat Milk Soap helps defend  against dry skin and irritation with natural ingredients. An essential treat for everyday use, cleanse, moisturize and feel the difference in your skin for yourself!

Pastured Meats
Pastured Eggs
Naturally Fermented Foods
Baked Goods with Organic Ingredients
See All Products

Market is open Fridays at 9 p.m. through 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. in Clayton, Clarkesville, or Gainesville.

If you do not get an email ORDER CONFIRMATION after you finish the checkout process, then your order is NOT complete. Head back to the market page, 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.

Once you place an order, be on the lookout for the order reminder email on Wednesday with further pickup and payment notes.

Thanks for supporting local farmers!

Champaign, OH:  Up On Cyprus Avenue


And the leaves fall one by one by one by one…
Call the autumn time a fool…
(Van Morrison)

Just a little song to get you through your evening, as I have a glass of wine, listen to the soothing sounds of Van Morrison, and open up the market for another week.

Also, your market manager is back with breads, rolls, focaccia, hippie cookies, flour power biscuits, and soups!! So happy to be back from my summer of healing, and just being in the moment…

The market is open, and ready for your weekly orders!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

It’s a lovely time of year in Arkansas! The heat of summer is passing as the cool breath of fall starts to tease us with cool evenings! In a way, it’s the best of both worlds! It’s warm enough to enjoy outdoor activities like cookouts, camping and picnics while cool enough to inspire cozy meals, campfires, and the bounty of harvest time! Shop for premium cuts of meat for delicious cookouts, stock your freezer for the next few months or just get ready for soup and stew weather! Look for Drewry apples on the extras table this week and hold on to the taste of summer with a sweet watermelon from Justin’s Produce! The peppers are loving this weather and our vendors have both sweet and spicy varieties. Enjoy the amazing flavor of cooking with fresh herbs or get a couple of live plants to supply your kitchen for months to come! Avoid processed sugar with honey from Rural Route or try some of our vendors’ tasty jam or jelly made from your favorite fruits! Meadowlark’s ice cream will hit the spot on those warm afternoons and their cheese will help you create some tasty meals. With fresh breads, delicious sweets and great desserts, our bakers have it covered! Find something unique, try a new flavor or savor your favorites with great local foods and products!
