Berea Gardens:  A little change

Hi Friends,

For the past 54 years (since age 14) the fall has been a very busy time in my agricultural working life. While in high school I worked the almond harvest (with many of my classmates) and in subsequent years it seems that whether I was working in agriculture or horticulture the fall represented a time when there was a flurry of urgent and critical activity.

This year I have decided to take things a little easier. I have not planted my usual large fall garden. We will still keep our market open and I still have things to harvest and share with you, but I will not be doing pre-sales with the online market or be taking any pre-orders by other means. I will still send you a Sunday email with info about some of what we expect to have, what vendors will be here and other things to keep you inspired to come see us on Wednesdays. I want to thank you all for being such good and faithful customers. We intend to keep the market open until Thanksgiving with our other vendors and Kenny has told me he has some crops coming for the fall and will be joining us regularly also. We still look forward to seeing you all on Wednesdays and I fully intend to re-open the online market next spring.

Blessings,
Bob & Lynnita

Arrington Farm: Welcome back to the market with their delicious breads.

Thweatt Things: 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.

Martin's Farmstand:  Canning tomatoes

This is the peak season for tomatoes with an abundance of of beautiful heirlooms, red beefsteaks and lots of romas. The warm weather earlier this week was good for maturing the winter squash and ripening tomatoes. This is also the peak season for abundant peppers both green and red, sweet and hot.
The onion harvest is complete. We have over 400 crates of onions stacked in the sheds and curing. They are mostly dry enough for bagging and storage. We will be working at this over the coming weeks as time permits. You can also just fill your own boxes and bags at the bulk price. Storage garlic is also available now and throughout the fall months. Fill your pantry and cellars with the autumn bounty for good eating in the winter. Daniel

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!

It is a great week to re-stock your freezer after the holiday weekend! The RCM meat category is stocked with better products and more choices than the grocery store! Get your chicken this week from Christal Fields, try healthy Emu from Gum Creek Emu, taste the difference in quality heritage breed pork from Porch Swing Farms and get top quality beef from R&D, C3 Beef or Michael’s Garden! Start your meal planning here with amazing and fresh local goods! If you haven’t tried baked goods from Victoria’s Little Bread House, you are missing out on some savory treats! If you didn’t meet her at last week’s market, she may be planning to hang out again this week to offer samples and visit about her products! Meadowlark Valley has Mediterranean Herb cheese and Rosemary and Thyme Gouda available; they would be great pairings with quite a few RCM products! My mouth is watering to think of all the delicious things I could do with quality ingredients from the market and products like seasonings and smoked salt from McAnulty Mercantile! Our pet supplies category is getting quite the selection, too! Your four-legged family members can enjoy the same goodness from fresh local products as we do with kitty and dog treats from Porch Swing Farms, McAnulty Mercantile and Treat Street Pet Bakery! Check out the selection of beautiful pumpkins and winter squash from Drewry Farm and Orchard; you can enjoy them as fall decorations and eat them, too! Their winter squash box is not only a bargain, it is decorative! We are looking forward to their delicious apple crop, as well! Connor’s Garden and Sweets still has yellow squash available for a lingering taste of summer and Kaitlyn’s Sweets and Treats can make you a cake for a special occasion or tasty cookies, cupcakes and fudge to satisfy your sweet tooth! Find delicious products and deals at RCM!
