Champaign, OH:  New Kid In Town


There’s talk on the street, it sounds so familiar…
Great expectations, everybody’s watching you…
People you meet they all seem to know you…
Even your old friends treat you like you’re something new…
(The Eagles-New Kid In Town)

Sometimes, this little local market of love seems like it’s been around, forever. Other times, we still feel like the new kid in town.

There is a whole lot of talk about what we do, a whole lot of interest, and a whole lot of love generated by those who really do know us.

I feel like we set out, each week, to prove ourselves. Still a bit of mystery, a bit of illusion…just like the new kid in town. Excitement surrounds the new kid. The new kid sets out to make his mark. The new kid always feels like he has something to show or something to prove.

We totally understand…in our first three years of this market, we are STILL doing all of those things. We have been out there, dazzling, enticing, explaining, showing, doing, pleasing…

We are the new kids who have finally made it into the inner circle. We are the market that everyone has grown to know and to love. We are the little market of love that has grown so big that we no longer feel like the new kids.

We came, we saw, we are conquering. This is our weekend, coming up! It’s our time to let this little market shine!! The spotlight is going to be on all things local, on the people who bring you local, and on the local philosophy that we are about. We don’t just talk about being local. We don’t just use local because it’s trendy or the new catchphrase. We do local as a lifestyle. We do local because it’s all we know. We do local because it let’s us give you the local love.

Local is important. Local is healthy, local is cost effective, local fuels our community both financially and spiritually.

This market shines, is no longer the new kid in town, and is exceeding all expectations because of the local loyalty that you all show us.

Thank you for your part in our climb, in our goal reaching, in our vision planning. We love you for making us strong, each and every week, for making us feel welcome, for making us feel like we are making a difference, and for rocking the new kid into new stratospheres.

I open the market, tonight, with so much local pride, spirit, and love!

We are no longer the new kids…we are here to stay!!

Peace and Love,
Cosmic Pam

Local Farms First:  The Market is Open for Business!


Greetings Local Farms First Food Lovers,

We have a new product on the market this week grown by Rain Crow Farm: celeriac, an little-known, and under-appreciated vegetable! It may look funny, but celeriac is a delicious variety of celery cultivated for its root and a popular storage crop.

A tasty way to prepare celeriac is by grating it with other veggies to include in a coleslaw. Pick up a celeriac on the market and try this recipe for a simple celeriac red cabbage slaw.

Enjoy!

Thanks for supporting local family farms,
Erin Griffin- Market Manager

Open House- JavaGenesis- This Sunday!

If you’re a coffee lover or just interested in how coffee is roasted you won’t want to miss this event!

Join JavaGenesis Coffee Roasting on Sunday, October 12 between 10am and 3pm for an Open House. They are located at 741 Harry McCarty Road, Unit 102, Bethlehem, GA 30620. (off University Parkway (Hwy 316)).

They will do a few rounds at the cupping table, roast some coffee (Tom will even turn over the controls to a volunteer), drink lots of coffee and share with you what they do and how they do it.

Of course due to its wild popularity…there will again be espresso shots over ice cream.

Kids are welcome and can enjoy some ice cream too… of course without the shot of espresso :-)

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Upcoming Wellness Events

It’s finally here! The next Sugar Detox Program starts Wednesday, October 15th @ 6:30pm at Vitality Method Pilates Studio in Duluth: 2590 Peachtree Industrial Blvd, Unit D, Duluth, GA 30097

What is the RESTART™ Sugar Detox?

The RESTART™ Sugar Detox is a 5-week program [led by a Nutritional Therapist] with a 21-day sugar detox built into it.
It is part class, part sugar detox, and part support group: a powerful and empowering combination!

You will be fully supported as you go through a gentle, yet powerful sugar detox that will remove the negative effects of sugar from your body and your life.

You will also learn:

How to prepare mentally, physically, and emotionally to make successful changes to your diet.
How Digestion is supposed to work and simple ways to enhance yours.
What sugar really does in your body, the stages of dysglycemia (Hypoglycemia, Hyperglycemia, Insulin Resistance, Type 2 Diabetes), and effective ways to reduce your risk of these conditions.
The truth about FATS and why healthy fats are essential for healthy Blood Sugar Regulation, as well as your general good health. You will learn which fats to eat, which fats to avoid, and why!
How to move forward from the sugar detox and re-introduce foods in a healthful way back into your daily diet.?

You can do it and you will feel amazing!

Be in control of sugar, rather than it controlling you.
Feel empowered to say no or yes because it feels good to you.
Feel so good in your body and make the best choices for you.

Sign up here! You can also reserve your spot by calling: (678) 957-3000

So what are past participants saying about the program?

“I never thought I could do this, but with all the information and support, it went by really fast and I feel great!”

“My [A1C] sugar level dropped 30% and I’m down 8 pounds, too!”

“If you or someone you know is addicted to sugar, this class will not disappoint!”

Pick Up Time Change

The 5pm pick up deadline is temporary and I will change the time back to 6:45 pm starting in late October or early November.

I will send out an update in Mid October – November when we revert back to our normal close time.

Thank you for your understanding!
