Grumpy Goat:  Weblog Entry


We had a fantastic day at the market this morning but we still have a lot left and I don’t have time this week to can! Plus we forgot a crate of bread this am so it arrived late, meaning we have some bread left over!!!! Onion bagels, 2 seeded oat and wheat loaves using our homegrown wheat, and 2 cinnamon walnut loaves. Stop by the store this afternoon or tomorrow 10-2 to get 10% off all produce and bread !!!! (You’ll have to calculate at checkout yourself – I know you can do it!!! And look in the order pick up area if you need more tomatoes – all those peach truck boxes are full!

Look for some corn in the store this coming week – supplies are limited!

Northeast Georgia Locally Grown:  Market is open for orders!


Locavores, Northeast Georgia Locally Grown is open for orders!

Go to the market >>
Produce
Baked Goods with Organic Ingredients
Pastured Meats
Cultured/Fermented Foods
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!
