Martin's Farmstand:  Cauliflower and Mums


Here is an updated “available now” list from Martins Farm stand. Today we have some really good late sweet corn, lots of eggplant, green and yellow beans, and cauliflower. We also have limited amounts of broccoli. The pepper crop is really abundant and good this year. We are overstocked on lovely red peppers so I just changed the red pepper price to the same as green. This applies both to full boxes or retail amounts. The tomato plants are looking rough in the field which means that even though we have floods of tomatoes now that will change soon. If you want canning tomatoes this year sooner is better than later. We are digging sweet potatoes as needed for the stand for fresh eating. I will dig the whole field later either when we have frost or the soil temp gets too cold for farther growth. If you plan to stock up on storage sweet potatoes for the winter wait till after the main harvest. After digging them there is a 7 day curing process that makes a better storing potato. Daniel

Pastured Eggs
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!
