Our mission is to provide fresh local produce and goods to serve our local communities while improving our footprint on the earth.

MISC MARKET NOTES

Welcome June!


June – what a month! Kids are finally out of school, parents are engaged helping them have fun while growing, gardens are yielding their bounty, people are getting married – all sorts of happy productive things.

In the kiddo department – more and more research points to the fact that unrestricted creative PLAY is one of the best things for a child’s mental, emotional, psychological and physical development. Most of us adults have memories of long summer days playing outdoors building everything from sand castles to forts, using everything from sand (of course) to pine straw to hay bales. We developed creativity, teamwork and a sense of accomplishment doing these things. My own sons invented “things” for their elaborate games involving paint balls down in our woods. A mishap once, where a stray paintball brought the entire fire department and law enforcement to our place led to one of the best parental teaching opportunities to ever land in our laps. Looking back that paintball was ordained by God to help grow a bunch of boys into fine men.

In the garden department if you preserve any sort of bounty THIS IS YOUR SEASON! More and more people are venturing into canning, freezing, dehydrating, etc. Word has it that one of our M@D family has taken the plunge to invest in a freeze dryer! If food preservation is something you are interested in please know our M@D vendors are a rich resource with many years of knowledge and experience who would be glad to help you. And you don’t have to be afraid of a pressure canner! Some of our customers have given talks on the topic as well so all you have to do is say “HELP” and one of us is sure to have experience with your particular need.

Lastly, the WEDDINGS!. We were thrilled to learn of a customer who recently became engaged. (You know who you are (wink!)) We hope everyone you know taking that plunge will be perfectly matched and blissfully happy for many, many years.

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.

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 your support!
