The Wednesday Market:  Ordering Time


Good evening.

The Wednesday Market is open for orders. Please place your orders by 10 p.m. Monday. Orders are ready for pick up between 3 and 6 p.m. on Wednesday. Check the website for this week’s product offerings. Here is the link: https://wednesdaymarket.locallygrown.net/market

I apologize for the lateness in getting this notice to you all. We have experienced computer challenges today. Technology is really great – as long as everything works properly! Technology glitches are frustrating and unpredictable, so now is a great time to remind everyone that even if you don’t receive notice that the Market is open, it is always open on Sundays. Please do not wait on me to post the link before you try placing an order. You can always get to the Market by Googling “The Wednesday Market.” Our Market should be at the top of the list.

I’m off to the kitchen now to make a pot of chili. Hope everyone has a good evening, and we’ll see you Wednesday.

Thanks,

Beverly

Dawson Local Harvest:  Autumn Offerings


Dawson Local Harvest for October 2nd

Autumn Offerings

HI EVERYONE

With the heat of summer gone and the first cooler weather of the season The Harvest is seeing a little more diversity. Here’s what’s happening:

LEILANI’S has some fresh offerings. New this week is Swiss Chard. Not only scrumptious in soups and salads, it’s great in Quiches, by itself with Gruyere cheese or combined with salmon. Gotta try this! Back on the menu this week is Green Beans, along with Lettuce, Salad Mix, Okra, and plenty of different Peppers.

Apeaking of Peppers I love LEILANI’S Sweet Banana Peppers with MY DAILY BREAD‘S ORGANIC VEGGIE CREAM CHEESE DIP. It’s a healthy and great-tasting low-cal snack.

New from MY DAILY BREAD are Gluten-Free offerings, with the intriguing Gluten-free Cheesecake Brownies to go along with delicious Gluten-Free Glorious Morning Muffins with organic apples, carrots, coconut and walnuts in a gluten-free muffin mix. Yum!

BRADLEY’S FARMS has also added a 2 ounce bottle to their line of Honey.Give it a try to see just how good local Honey can be.

THE MARKET WILL OPEN SUNDAY at 8pm!

REMEMBER! You can order until Tuesday night at 8pm. Pick up your order at Leilani’s Gardens Friday afternoons from 4 to 7pm.

You’ll find the DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST at http://dawsonville.locallygrown.net

We thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible! We guarantee your satisfaction with all products in the DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST.

Have a happy and healthy week!

——————————————————————————————————————————————————
NEWS AND NOTES

Frontier Family Farms fall spinach is here! It’s a great addition to a salad, and we still have lots of other summer vegetables to add to that salad. The variety of foods this time of year is wonderful, with the fall vegetables coming in while the summer vegetables are still in abundant supply.



But farmers’ markets are not all about vegetables. Please take note of some of the new and returning seasonal items available this week:


  • Live Water Kefir Grains and Square Bale Grass Hay from Triple B Farms

  • Ground Beef from Paccman Ranch

  • Scuppernong and Muscadine ciders, jelly, and fruits from White City Produce & Greenhouses

  • Dogwood Valley Greenhouse is running a fall special on perennial and herb plants and ferns: Buy 3, get one of equal or lesser value free. Fall is actually the best time of year to plant perennials, as well as a great time to get a jump on your spring gardening. Fall-planted perennials establish a strong root system over winter, allowing for spectacular spring blooming.

  • Local milk

  • Eggs

  • Pork

  • Chicken cuts

  • Dried herbs and fresh, as well as lots of homemade herbal products too.

  • And more!!!







  • (L to R) Spinach from Frontier Family Farm, Mountain Fresh Tomatoes and Zucchini from White City Produce & Greenhouses, Dwarf Red Carnation and Bright Pink Coneflower from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse.

    Important Ordering and Pickup Information


    Ordering will be open until Tuesday at 10 p.m., and your order will be available for pickup on Thursday between 4:00 and 5:30 (note later pickup hours) at Square Books, 113 East Main Street, Manchester. We can also hold your order in the refrigerator till Friday, if it’s more convenient for you to pick it up between 9:00 am and 2:00 pm. If you prefer to utilize this free service, please make a note on your order or call my cell at (931) 273-9708.



    Thanks so much for your support of Manchester Locally Grown Market, and your friends and neighbors who have grown and produced these items. Please encourage our local farmers by helping to spread the word about our wonderful market to everyone you know. We have more variety than many large Saturday markets, and our items will be in your hands on Thursday! Instead of fighting the crowds and getting up early to search for what you want at the Saturday market, check out the wonderful products our local growers have for you, from the comfort of your own computer.



    We have some new farmers considering joining our market, if they can expect large sales to help pay their transportation costs. Please help us grow the market by sharing this e-mail with some of your friends, calling their attention to the later pickup hours, which may be more convenient for them. And if you haven’t ordered from Manchester Locally Grown for a while, please check out our wide variety of offerings this week.



    Blessings,
    Linda

Tell your friends about us so we can keep the Growers supported as this is how they make their living.

    Thank you to all of you who support Gwinnett Locally Grown!

    If there is something you’d like to see in the Market, please let me know! I would love your input!
