Growers News:

Calico Farms: With allergy season in full swing, now is the time to breathe easier with our sinus relief shower steamers. Simply place one in the shower with you and let them slowly dissolve, releasing the eucalyptus & peppermint essential oils along with menthol crystals to open you up. Sold in a 2 pack & worth their weight in gold for their invigorating effects.

Spring also means salads and there’s nothing that tops a mixed-greens or spinach salad like our pecans – both the cinnamon sugared & sweet & spicy add a delicious & nutritious crunch that also goes awesome in chicken or tuna salad sandwiches! I actually do the same with our herbed & spicy mixed nuts to tasty results.

Don’t forget to grab your baking essentials too – we have all 3 sizes of our vanilla sugar, a fresh batch of homemade vanilla extract & our organic chocolate syrup that perfectly tops any sundae or makes to-die-for chocolate milk, all with the cleanest ingredients.

Safe and Sound Soap Co.: I started my soap company because I wanted to offer natural and non toxic options to people at an affordable price. I offer a variety of soaps, home and cleaning products, and car air fresheners. All of my items are made with all natural ingredients that you can actually pronounce!
This week I have added a new item! My new and improved Room Freshening Spray! These now come in a new 4 ounce bottle, the scent lasts longer, and you get more product! I have some amazing essential oil scents, as well as my clean non toxic fragrance blends. My favorite essential oil spray of course is Orange Bergamot, this is a great clean scent for your bathroom!! And I for my toxin free fragrance line, I love the Laundry Day scent. It is so fresh and clean!
The ingredients in these will be listed in the description and there you can check to see if the product uses essential oils or my fragrance in case you prefer to use essential oils in your home.

Tailwynds Farm: We have some new cuts of beef available. We have a Picanha Roast Cut. This cut can be grilled to perfection, has wonderful flavor and a similar texture to a sirloin steak and to top it off try a homemade fresh strawberry pie for dessert. If you have not tried a Tomahawk steak we still have some available. We have had amazing reviews on these cuts with customers saying it was the best and most tender steak they have ever eaten. Fire up those grills and give one a try. We have many crops already growing and plan to have all the farm fresh vegetables available as soon as they start coming in.

Emerald Acres: Strawberries, Lettuce Mix, Mixed Lettuce Heads and Spring Mix of Flowers.

Sow’s Ear Piggery: We have re-stocked our “BEST-SELLERS” this week: mild pork breakfast sausage (no MSG) and pork chops! Heritage-breed, pastured pigs on non-GMO/non-soy/non-corn diet. More cuts to be added soon!

Pinky’s Micro’s:
New Spring blend of power packed microgreens…Romaine, Golden Leeks, Lemon Basil and Red Panda Sorrell.

Also check out our other Micro’s – Basic Salad Mix, Broccoli, Cilantro, Pea, Radish, Red Amaranth, Sunflower and Wheat Grass Shots.

Oakview Farm:
We will have some of its customer favorites this week: Scandanavian Buttermilk Sourdough Bread, Artisan Sourdough bread, Roasted Strawberry Jam, and Homemade Peppermint Patties! Our hens have been laying like crazy, so we have fresh eggs, too.
From our garden, we have our Salad Greens Mix, Cabbage, Rainbow Swiss Chard, and Spinach. We don’t use any chemical fertilizers or pesticides on our produce, so you know it’s good for you and the environment.

You work hard, so treat yourself to an incredible dining experience with our lamb or chicken. It’s healthier and tastier than conventionally grown meats, and better for the planet, too. Our amazing goat milk soaps and lotions will leave your skin feeling like you just dropped 2 grand at a high end spa. You deserve nice things, so let us provide them to you.

When I walked out the front door this morning, I was greeted by the glorious perfume of my hundred year old magnolia tree. Soon, she will break forth in enormous snowy blooms. The fig trees in the back yard have fluffed out in broad green leaves. Surely we will have a bumper crop of sweet ripe figs this summer. And I cannot wait for tomato season. May your gardens proper!

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. in Clayton, Clarkesville, or Gainesville.

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!
