Group Buy

GROUP BUY – Mountain Valley Farm Grass-fed Butter http://grassfedgeorgia.com/
Pre-order online this week. I will pick up our orders from the farm the following week. Pick up will be July 5th. A naturally rich grass fed butter made from low temp pasteurized cream from pastured cows at Mountain Valley Farm in Elijay, Ga. The butterfat does not separate into solids and “water” as it does in commercially made butter. You will definitely notice the difference, especially in the flavor. Mountain Valley cream is turned into delicious butter by Happy Cow Creamery in South Carolina.

PICK UP LOCATION
Building 106, Colony Park Dr. in the Basement of Suite 100, Cumming, GA 30040. Pick up every Saturday between 10-12pm.

Old99Farm Market:  Old 99 Farm, week of June 22, 2014


Strawberries are now in, have picked first 10 liters and the crop looks bountiful. Also have basil, beet tops and the standbys: kale, collards, chard.

Greenhouse lettuces are over till the fall, but hot weather crops, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants (yes, lots of eggplant varieties this year) are already fruiting.

I will be taking a beef or two to the butcher next week so get your orders in for quarters, halfs or cuts.

Maremma pups are now 5 weeks old, balls of fluff, falling over big feet. It’s hard to imagine them getting to 100 lbs and being loyal guardians of the family and stock. In case you hadn’t heard, I have 6 puppies from Sheba and another purebred Maremma male, (Justin owned by Jim Wright). These are for sale at $400, with vet inspection and first vaccinations. Please pass the word to big beautiful dog lovers.

Camelia is off her crutches, doing physio and back to her beloved garden.

Martin's Farmstand:  Abundant Strawberries


The next picking for strawberries starts at 2 PM tommorrow (Wednesday) afternoon. Tommorrow’s picking has the potential to go well over 2000 quarts- there are a lot of berries in every patch that will be nicely ripened by picking time. This is the time to fill the freezer- or maybe you just wish to to pick some to go with homemade ice cream or shortcake. Strawberries are a wonderful way to enjoy summer. Make sure you get your taste of them soon. Daniel
