Northeast Georgia Locally Grown: Locally Grown - Availability for July 15, 2014
Hey Local Food Lovers,
Just want to make a very short and sweet last minute reminder to get your orders in before tonight at 9PM.
Today I want to say just a few words about how much fun it is to feed your one year old baby wholesome local food. We’ve been joking around the house for the last year that if everyone ate as pure a food as what we’ve been feeding our daughter then we’d all be a lot healthier.
I have to give my wife almost all the credit. She’s been dedicated to making our babies food from day one. That means all organic ingredients. I won’t get into the details of peas, carrots, sweet potatoes and apples getting cooked and chopped up, but I will say often the smells in the kitchen are so good I want to eat the baby food.
What’s been more fun for me lately is our daughters interest in anything and everything we’re eating, and the faces she makes when she takes a bite of something for the first time.
Lately I’ve been slicing Mtn Earth blueberries in half and slipping them in her mouth. Did I already mention how she’d mash and suck the pulp and then spit out the leathery (somewhat bitter) peal. This morning we were sitting outside drinking coffee (just me silly) and she watched as the birds came down and were plucking all the berries (even the unripe ones) from the bush. I could see her little gears turning realizing HEY, they like the same stuff I do, and HEY wait a minute what do they think they are doing.
Also this weekend I scrambled some Homegrown Products eggs with Baker Springs heirloom tomatoes cooked in. I’ve always loved all kinds of veggies in my eggs and especially yummy heirloom tomatoes. I was pleased that Ayla liked the combination too. Then I wanted to see if just a bit of tomato uncooked was tasty to her as well….and yes….success, she loved it.
There’s some sweet treats as well but those you can feel good about. A blueberry, raspberry and banana smoothie with Mtn Fresh Milk, organic yogurt, organic apple juice, and dollop of Mtn Honey. Ok, I did put one small spoonful of vanilla ice cream too. That’s my secret to incredible smoothies. Ayla and I shared a glass and towards the end there was some competition on who would get the last full spoonfuls. And why does it taste better one spoonful at a time?
There’s so much more but hopefully that’ll whet your whistle for local foods this week.
One last plug to take our FARM TOUR SURVEY! Your feedback is very valuable to us. It only takes a minute of your time. And if you were a farmer on the tour, we’d like your feedback too!
Order big. It’ll improve your week!
EAT WELL,
Justin, Chuck, Teri and Andrew

South Cumberland Farmer's Market: Tomorrow's Market...
The board meeting was postponed from last week to this week, so customer pickup will not begin until 4:30 tomorrow. Because of the size of the market, although we are open till 6:15 it would be very helpful to us if you could plan to be there by 6:00 for pickup. We realize this isn’t always possible, but we have a lot going on at the end of market and would greatly appreciate your efforts!
Remember to bring bags for yourself if you have them; we do have some bags available if you don’t have enough for your items. But occasionally we do run out.
Thanks!

Marie of Bakery on Brooks had a busy and fun time with her Grands. She is offering her Gluten Free Frozen Cinnamon Rolls on Special this week! These little gems are great to enjoy with Breakfast or a super treat during an afternoon Coffee or Tea break! Take one from the freezer, let it defrost (and rise), pop in the toaster oven for 20 minutes, top with butter and cream cheese frosting! Yum!
Dabrielle and Bruce Wills of My Daily Bread are offering Blackberries on the Market this week and will have Blueberries available for the Farmer Sales Table if Mother Nature cooperates! I already have put some of each in the freezer to enjoy when they are out of season!
What are you doing to preserve the harvest? Green Beans from Back River Farm are a great choice! You can freeze or pressure can for use later. Sarah and I canned 40 pints over the weekend. The Green Beans are plentiful and delicious! Don’t miss the opportunity to preserve local produce!

Princeton Farm Fresh: The Market is Open
Summer is coming on hot and heavy now. I love this time of year when all of the summer veggies are available. Making dinner is a joy when you get to use all the colors of the rainbow.
Remember we meet on Friday’s(4-6pm) at Tractor Supply, and the traditional market meets on Thursday’s in the Princeton Park from 4-6pm. Both are great options to get your local fresh food.
See you all soon,
Angela
Joyful Noise Acres Farm: Don't forget to place your orders before 8:00 tonight.
The market has so many delightful foods and vegetables to offer this week. Fresh herbs abound, think Pesto, and the slicing cucumbers from Weedy Soil Farm can go into tomatoes and Vidalia onion salad, dill and White Balsamic Vinegar, or chopped salad. I love cucumbers!
*Joyful Noise Acres Farm *has plenty of fresh pork in along with a half hog for those that want to stock the freezer with delicious pasture raised pork. We also have ground lamb, skirt steaks – excellent on the grill then sliced thin.
Don’t forget to send me a note if you want to add buttermilk to your order this week.
Blessings and thank you for supporting your local farmers.
