Joyful Noise Acres Farm: Chicken update.
Holden Creek Farm is a small farm nestled in the mountains of northern Georgia, where we specialize in raising pastured poultry. Pastured systems are cleaner, more natural, and more humane. Our entire production system is a natural, pasture-based model that avoids the use of GMOs, antibiotics and other medications. Our small family farm is a testament to values we hold dear and that have been passed down through the generations…..a love and respect for one another and a deep connection to the land and animals we care for.
We welcome Holden Creek Farm and are excited to offer chicken this week! Livers, feet, backs and more are available.

Take me to the Market.
Joyful Noise Acres Farm: The on line market is open for ordering.
Another wonderful week at the market, thanks to you, our customers and our wonderful vendors!
Please get those orders in and support your local growers and producers, they are here to serve you. I also want to thank those of you that bring friends by to see the market, it seems we have a new visitor every week or so. Keep sharing about our market and give our farmers a reason to grow!
We have plenty of goodies this week, the staples of milk, butter, cheese and wonderful meats. The vegetables are beautiful and long lasting. I lost some of my Weedy Soil lettuce in the back of the vegetable bin and two weeks later, it was still beautiful, no slimy bits al all. The beets this week were huge and had the greens still attached for a bonus. YUM!
THank you for all your concern about our milk orders. Thank you for purchasing the extras. We do not want to lose Cedar Rock and prayerfully we will not.
Also, we are always open to suggestions on how to improve the market, it is here because of you and for you.
Blessings all, get your orders in then get out and play on this beautiful day!
Mary Beth
