Yalaha, FL:  Peak Lettuce season


Remember you can always email or text me if you want to place an order and I forgot to open the Market or if I seem t have not adjusted quantities available since last week. Often flexible here though not always predictable.

If you Want to pick up the order at the Chillax Drum Circle in the Villages Sunday Afternoons, just let me know so I can bring it along. If you are with a homeschool group or other facebook group I attend events regularly, Let me know so I can plan accordingly. Otherwise when ordering, remember to let me know when you want to come pick up at the farm. If I don’t email you back to confirm, the order may not have gone through. To make an order you must be signed in, and you add products to your cart individually and then to check out you must go to your cart (Left side of screen near the top of the Market page) to do the check out and actually place the order.

The regular ordering window is now (as in whenever I open the Market) through Thursday 8am for Friday-Sunday pickup. However, if I send this Out Thursday, It has what is available after the Restaurants have ordered and you can place an order for pickup whenever we arrange it. (Or check with me tclynx@aquaponiclynx.com or text 407-342-8515 if you might want to pick up sooner or for special arrangements, I’m usually flexible.)

I may still be able to take orders after Thursday Morning but can’t guarantee availability of things as I may have already packed them for the Restaurants.
Ordering window is Monday Afternoon (or when I open it) through Thursday Morning and pick up will be Friday-Sunday by appointment until we expand more, Please indicate when you would like to pick up when you place your order.

I’m repeating myself now…..

Remember to tell me when you want to pick up! (and if I don’t reply to confirm within a day, bump my e-mail or text me 407-342-8515. Though I have cleaned up my e-mail so hopefully I won’t Miss Anyone.)

Sign in to order. https://yalaha.locallygrown.net/market

You have to sign in to see the add to cart button. Then set the number and click the add to cart button on the items you want to buy (it is the little picture right next to the quantity box.) Remember you need to check out before your order will be placed.
Remember to let me know when you want to pick up on Sat or maybe even Friday late afternoon or on Sunday. (If I don’t send you an e-mail confirmation of your order and pick up time, please make sure you checked out and completed your order.)

Foothills Market:  The Market is Open!


This week on Foothills Market, we’re going to celebrate the humble salad. While the stereotype is “rabbit food,” salads have several benefits for adding to your menu plan: 1) they are good for you, with vitamins and fiber; 2) they can have a lot of variety, depending on what you put in; 3) they are quick and easy to make.

The market features several items that can form the base of your salad, whether it’s a side item or the main dish. We have salad mixes with a variety of lettuces, including red and green romaine. If you want to add other greens, how about some spinach or watercress or maybe some kale or Swiss chard? Dress up that salad with celery, radishes, a boiled egg or mushrooms. Add a little sour-sweet element with some Bread and Butter pickles. Add a side of a bagel and cream cheese or maybe a nice chunk of focaccia, and you have a meal! And since your salad was low-calorie, maybe you can treat yourself to a brownie or cookie for dessert!

Shop the market between now and 5:00 p.m. Wednesday. We’ll have your order ready for pickup on Thursday – just in time to make that salad for supper!

I’ve added Cucumber Twist to my Whipped scrub collection! This scent is light, crisp, and perfect for spring and summer! If you have yet to try a Safe and Sound Soap Co. sugar scrub add one to your cart this week and experience the fluffy buttery texture for yourself! It’s a body wash, exfoliating moisturizer all in one. Remember to check out my two newest Car Air Freshener scents I released for spring and summer, Coconut Leather, and Peaches and Cream.

WildFlour:

Happy to bake for you this week after a few weeks off! Crusty, artisan sourdough, soft and fluffy sandwich bread, bagels and – new this week- sourdough English muffins!!

Quarter Spring Farm:

Spring is in the air, and we are so grateful that it has finally arrived. With tons of new babies on the farm, our mama goats are working overtime to make extra milk. And we are working overtime to turn that milk into our amazing goat milk soap. Our all natural soap is great for your skin, moisturizing and gently exfoliating to leave your skin feeling soft and glowing with health. And speaking of health, our delicious pasture raised chicken and grass-fed lamb is a much healthier and cleaner alternative to industrially grown meats. Try them for yourself and you will taste the difference.

Calico Farms:

What screams “Spring!” more than strawberries? Nothing! Try our new Super Strawberry Scones. Why are they super? Well, not only do they contain real organic strawberries, they’re also made with our homemade strawberry sugar (sold separately) to further layer in that amazing flavor. Trust me, they’re sooo good!
They’re finished with a sweet vanilla icing that has our homemade vanilla extract as well & as always, these are organic & dairy-free. Our scones are sold in 4-packs & lovingly boxed up for you.
We just made a fresh batch of our popular organic mild salsa – perfect for topping tacos/eggs, scooping up with tortilla chips, smothering a burrito or dressing a taco salad – there’s no bad decisions to be made here! For those who like more heat, we also offer a medium habanero & hot Carolina Reaper.
Never fear, we have 3 cookie varieties available this week as well: maple sea salt, gluten free chocolate crinkle & raspberry thumbprint.

Marshmallow Dessert Café & Catering:

We specializes in New Southern and Creole fare, crafted with a focus on non-GMO ingredients, fresh herbs, and bold spices. What sets us apart is our commitment to better ingredients while also offering vegan and gluten-free options without compromising on flavor. From a comforting bowl of gumbo to our beautifully packaged baking mixes, every product is made with your well-being in mind—so you can indulge and enjoy.

First enjoy a quick and easy way to make delicious sweet southern cornbread. Just add your choice of milk and enjoy. Made with organic cornmeal and contains no preservatives. Makes an 8×8 pan. This is a great and easy addition to your meal and no one will know it’s vegan!

How about a delicious one bowl mix for a fudge pie inspired by orange essence and warm cinnamon. Just add wet ingredients and pour into your crust. This resealable bag contains mix for 2 pies! No preservatives and non gmo ingredients. Tip: Try it without a crust for a delicious brownie!

Our “Salt-Free” spice mix contains herbs and peppers that will take any savory dish to the next level. It contains a unique combination of herbs, cayenne and African spices and peppers. Season everything from meat, fish, vegetables and soups! Contains no preservatives.

Temple Love Juices:

Now offering individual sizes. is a health-focused juicing business dedicated to nourishing the body through fresh, cold-pressed juices.

New items presented to you from the NashPhilly Tasty kitchen this week!

Another delicious risotto to tantalize your taste buds. A mushroom risotto that is finished with truffle oil and herbs. This will make a great little side dish to serve with organic chicken, ribeye steak, or pork chops.

And another great hometown Philly Style Sandwich. Chicken Parmesan Sandwich. We tenderize chicken and season with Italian herbs and seasonings. Then we crumb and pan fry until they are golden brown. Finished with our home made marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan.

MISC MARKET NOTES

Batten Down the Hatches!

It seems like this nasty storm approaching us is the only thing on people’s mind’s today. Our granddaughter in North Carolina called worried about GranGran and Gammi and all the animals. She asked pretty much the same thing an inspector asked us last year about emergency preparedness!

An uncle texted and is concerned about 2000 baby plants in his greenhouse being damaged by hail. A farm client postponed their trip so they didn’t have to deal with it on the road. And I remember an ex military co-worker from many years ago breaking security clearance wondering out loud if the weather experiments he participated in were responsible for some of the crazy stuff we were seeing at that time.

Even today the conspiracy theories about those and other experiments and now chem-trails can make your head spin trying to understand what’s gong on with crazy weather like this.

So what’s the point here? It’s fair to say PREPARE!. Make sure outdoor things are secured. Have a plan just in case. Do you have gas, food, matches, a battery radio? When you’ve done all you can there’s no point in fretting. Beyond that I think the following image pretty much says what needs to be embraced.

Enterprise Order Policy: $50 minimum order and prepayment using paypal.me/marketatdothan required.

MT MORIAH FARMS: Spring is definitely a favorite season around here. The smell of the clover and all the babies floods me with joy. I love the longer lighted evenings, it really helps get more outside work done. With all of that extra work getting done, that means dirtier hands! No worries around here since we have plenty of soap to wash it all away. Did you know that your skin is your largest organ? What you use to wash your hands with, does matter!  Goat milk soap is a gentle cleanser rich in fatty acids that can help support a healthy skin barrier to keep skin nourished and moisturized. We would love for you to check our soaps out. 


HORTONS FARM: We’re happy to announce a new product:


This is Buckler Leaf Sorrel, a perennial green with a unique flavor profile. Many are familiar with the taste of various wild sorrels. This one has a bright lemony taste. Sorrel may be cooked or eaten raw in salads. Our favorite way to use it is in egg bites or scrambled eggs.

“Sorrels are closely related species belonging to the Rumex genus. Most species are considered “weeds”, but this one has a fantastically refreshing and bright flavor – think lemony lettuce! The flowers, seeds, and even roots are edible as well. They attract beneficial insects, mine for minerals in the soil, and are drought-tolerant to name but a few of their traits.”

At this time we have a limited quantity available.

The Wednesday Market:  Order Now, Before the Storm Hits!


Good morning.

The Wednesday Market is open for orders. Please place your order by 10 p.m. Monday. Orders are ready for pick up between 2 and 4 p.m. Wednesday. Check the website for this week’s product offerings. Here is the link:

https://wednesdaymarket.locallygrown.net/market

Weather forecasters have spent this week warning us about fierce storms coming our way this evening and overnight into tomorrow morning. If the weather is as bad as they say it will be, our area will encounter power outages. Please place your Wednesday Market order as soon as possible, before the power goes off. As we know from previous experience, it may take many hours or even days for the utility companies to restore power.

Emergency Management Agency officials are encouraging everyone to prepare today for tonight’s weather. Secure trash cans, yard furniture, trampolines – anything that can become airborne during high winds. Identify a “safe place” within your home – a first floor hallway, an interior room away from windows, or the basement – where you can go to shelter. Make sure your cell phone is fully charged and that you have a way to receive weather alerts. Have flashlights, extra batteries, and water available. For more information regarding storm preparedness, here is a link: https://www.weather.gov/safety/tornado-prepare

Thank you for supporting Georgia Grown. Stay safe this weekend, and we’ll see you at the Market.

Thanks,
Beverly

P.S. If you have questions about your order, please contact Nelda. She is available by text, email, or phone call.

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!
