Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market:  This Week at the Market

We sure are enjoying this fall weather! After spending the day planting and working on the farm, we all went to the Cherokee County Fair. It was my granddaughter’s first, so there were lots of pictures taken! I cannot wait to head up to Burt’s Pumpkin Farm again this year with her now that she’s a toddler.

So far I’ve got peas, beans, zucchini, butternut and buttercup sqaush, cauliflower, bok choy, and cucumbers planted from the greenhouse starts. Next up, broccoli, spinach, kale, swiss chard, Brussels Sprouts, fennel, dill, beets, turnips, and all the lettuces! Phew! That’s a lot of goodness to grow!

The hens are deciding to take a break. I am not getting enough to put eggs on the market right now, but will have them in the stand if I have extra on Saturday.

Don’t forget the stand is always open and has our white pumpkins, lots of Ellijay apples, our handcrafted vanilla extracts, jams, honey, bell peppers, a small amount of beans and figs as they come in.

Have a great week!

The Wednesday Market:  Fall Has Arrived! Ordering is Open.

Good afternoon.

How do we know that the season has changed? Astronomical seasons depend on how the Earth moves around the sun. Equinoxes, when the sun lands equally on both hemispheres, mark the start of spring and autumn. Solstices, when the Earth sees its strongest tilt toward or away from the sun, kick off summer and winter. Yesterday was the autumnal equinox.

Did you know there are other ways to track seasons? For meteorologists, the seasons are defined by the months with temperatures and weather often associated with each. Summer, for example, runs from June through August, when temperatures feel most like “summer.”

My favorite season is summer. I must say, though, that the cooler weather of the last week or so is a welcome relief from the oppressive temperatures and humidity we have experienced this summer. Our home’s air conditioning units have taken turns being out of commission during some of the hottest weather we have had in years. Even my car’s air conditioning system had to be serviced a few weeks ago. Whew! Fall is a blessing!

Thank you for supporting Georgia Grown, no matter what season we’re in! We’ll see you at the Market.

Thanks,

Beverly

Thweatt Things: Added a new item this week, the Walker Tote organizer fits over most walkers and makes a stable holder for newspapers, remotes, fiber arts and crafts, tissues, phones and water bottles. These lightweight totes are made of cotton and completely washable. These make great gifts for the elderly who rely on walkers for mobility. Or Mother’s with strollers to keep items handy.

The start-up of school means more time to sew and I’m doing just that. This fall I’m featuring handmade Egg-gathering Aprons in both adult and kids sizes. These are made from 100% cotton, pre-washed and machine washable and dryable for easy care. The pockets for the eggs are large enough to accommodate a larger egg (like a duck egg) or a couple of hen eggs. These could also be useful for crafting or any other activity where small pockets might come in handy. Check out my posts for pricing info. I can also customize them for you if you’d like a matching adult/child combo. Thanks for looking.

Lavendar Cottage: We have added some increased sizes! Delicious snack to lunch bags and just a mid-day treat….This week we are bring some Freeze Dried candies into the market along with our Freeze dried fruits and veggies.

Pinky’s Micros: You are missing out if you don’t eat these greens…healthy..put them in a smoothy, top you salads or sandwich, make rollups….Microgreens pack 40x more vital nutrients than their mature counterparts. Extremely dense in vital enzymes, minerals, vitamins, omega, and high does of chlorophyll. There aren’t many foods you could eat that are that packed of nutrients and harvested a day before delivery for freshness.

Middle Tennessee Locally Grown:  The Market Is Open for Ordering

Martin's Farmstand:  Cauliflower and Mums

Here is an updated “available now” list from Martins Farm stand. Today we have some really good late sweet corn, lots of eggplant, green and yellow beans, and cauliflower. We also have limited amounts of broccoli. The pepper crop is really abundant and good this year. We are overstocked on lovely red peppers so I just changed the red pepper price to the same as green. This applies both to full boxes or retail amounts. The tomato plants are looking rough in the field which means that even though we have floods of tomatoes now that will change soon. If you want canning tomatoes this year sooner is better than later. We are digging sweet potatoes as needed for the stand for fresh eating. I will dig the whole field later either when we have frost or the soil temp gets too cold for farther growth. If you plan to stock up on storage sweet potatoes for the winter wait till after the main harvest. After digging them there is a 7 day curing process that makes a better storing potato. Daniel
