Northeast Georgia Locally Grown:  Weblog Entry

Locavores, Northeast Georgia Locally Grown is open for orders!

WEATHER NOTE: Thanks for your understanding this week, as farmers experience an extended period of cold night time temperatures. Produce farmers are predicting what will be available for harvest 4-5 days in advance. This might result in veggies being removed from your order by the grower. They try to remove the items by 11am on Wednesdays if they need, and you are always able to see if any items are removed from your account page and clicking your orders for this week.

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 farmers market allows you to preorder 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. in Clayton, Clarkesville, or Gainesville.

If you do not get an email ORDER CONFIRMATION after you finish the checkout process, your order may NOT be 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 supporting local farmers!

We got the your sides for thanksgiving. Have you tried our Brussel sprouts. They are loaded up with bacon, and caramelized onions and stewed in chicken stock, vinegars, Tabasco, and brown sugar. Sure to be a hit. We also have a cornbread dressing, simple and classic flavors. Green bean casserole could also be a good choice. If you want something different but also exciting and excellent try our freshly baked cornbread salad casserole made with freshly cut tomatoes, bell peppers, green onions, layered with bacon, cheese, and sour cream and ranch dressing. The creamed collard greens are also delicious and a different take on our favorite greens. Cooked in basically an Alfredo sauce with lots of garlic and Parmesan cheese.
Our pimento cheese, egg salad, sun dried tomato pesto or spinach and artichoke dip would make for a nice and light snack if you are hosting a large dinner party and want some snacks before dinner.

Soup of the week: Butternut Squash soup. It’s like a warm a hug. All the great fall/ winter spices, with some herbs like rosemary and sage. Sure to warm you up throughout the cold nights. We will also have tomato and basil bisque and broccoli and cheddar soup available this week.

Time permitting this week we will be bringing loaves of the rosemary focaccia bread to the market.
