MISC MARKET NOTES
Batten Down the Hatches!
It seems like this nasty storm approaching us is the only thing on people’s mind’s today. Our granddaughter in North Carolina called worried about GranGran and Gammi and all the animals. She asked pretty much the same thing an inspector asked us last year about emergency preparedness!
An uncle texted and is concerned about 2000 baby plants in his greenhouse being damaged by hail. A farm client postponed their trip so they didn’t have to deal with it on the road. And I remember an ex military co-worker from many years ago breaking security clearance wondering out loud if the weather experiments he participated in were responsible for some of the crazy stuff we were seeing at that time.
Even today the conspiracy theories about those and other experiments and now chem-trails can make your head spin trying to understand what’s gong on with crazy weather like this.
So what’s the point here? It’s fair to say PREPARE!. Make sure outdoor things are secured. Have a plan just in case. Do you have gas, food, matches, a battery radio? When you’ve done all you can there’s no point in fretting. Beyond that I think the following image pretty much says what needs to be embraced.
Enterprise Order Policy: $50 minimum order and prepayment using paypal.me/marketatdothan required.
MT MORIAH FARMS: Spring is definitely a favorite season around here. The smell of the clover and all the babies floods me with joy. I love the longer lighted evenings, it really helps get more outside work done. With all of that extra work getting done, that means dirtier hands! No worries around here since we have plenty of soap to wash it all away. Did you know that your skin is your largest organ? What you use to wash your hands with, does matter! Goat milk soap is a gentle cleanser rich in fatty acids that can help support a healthy skin barrier to keep skin nourished and moisturized. We would love for you to check our soaps out.
HORTONS FARM: We’re happy to announce a new product:
This is Buckler Leaf Sorrel, a perennial green with a unique flavor profile. Many are familiar with the taste of various wild sorrels. This one has a bright lemony taste. Sorrel may be cooked or eaten raw in salads. Our favorite way to use it is in egg bites or scrambled eggs.
“Sorrels are closely related species belonging to the Rumex genus. Most species are considered “weeds”, but this one has a fantastically refreshing and bright flavor – think lemony lettuce! The flowers, seeds, and even roots are edible as well. They attract beneficial insects, mine for minerals in the soil, and are drought-tolerant to name but a few of their traits.”
At this time we have a limited quantity available.

The Wednesday Market: Order Now, Before the Storm Hits!
Good morning.
The Wednesday Market is open for orders. Please place your order by 10 p.m. Monday. Orders are ready for pick up between 2 and 4 p.m. Wednesday. Check the website for this week’s product offerings. Here is the link:
https://wednesdaymarket.locallygrown.net/market
Weather forecasters have spent this week warning us about fierce storms coming our way this evening and overnight into tomorrow morning. If the weather is as bad as they say it will be, our area will encounter power outages. Please place your Wednesday Market order as soon as possible, before the power goes off. As we know from previous experience, it may take many hours or even days for the utility companies to restore power.
Emergency Management Agency officials are encouraging everyone to prepare today for tonight’s weather. Secure trash cans, yard furniture, trampolines – anything that can become airborne during high winds. Identify a “safe place” within your home – a first floor hallway, an interior room away from windows, or the basement – where you can go to shelter. Make sure your cell phone is fully charged and that you have a way to receive weather alerts. Have flashlights, extra batteries, and water available. For more information regarding storm preparedness, here is a link: https://www.weather.gov/safety/tornado-prepare
Thank you for supporting Georgia Grown. Stay safe this weekend, and we’ll see you at the Market.
Thanks,
Beverly
P.S. If you have questions about your order, please contact Nelda. She is available by text, email, or phone call.

Market is open Fridays at 9 p.m. through 9 p.m. Mondays!
Thank you for choosing Northeast Georgia Locally Grown as a way to support your local producers. This farmers market allows you to preorder 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!
PICKUP TIME is Wednesday from 5-6:30 p.m. in Clayton, Clarkesville, or Gainesville.
If you do not get an email ORDER CONFIRMATION after you finish the checkout process, your order may NOT be complete. Head back to the market page, and your order might still be there waiting for you to check out! If you have any trouble or questions at all, we are here to help; simply reply to this email.
Once you place an order, be on the lookout for the order reminder email on Wednesday with further pickup and payment notes.
Thanks for supporting local farmers!

CLG: Opening BELL: carrots on SALE and plants!
Good afternoon,
The market is now OPEN for orders. Click here to start shopping: *https://conway.locallygrown.net/market
Carrots are on sale for $4 a pound (normally $5) They keep well and they will not be available for at least another 3 weeks, so get them before they are gone. Same with turnips and radishes, a little cheaper this week and they won’t be here next. Grown at Five Acre farm with no chemicals.
Be sure to check out the Seeds and Live Plants section and get a jump start on your garden this year. Some plants are not frost tolerant so you might have to protect them if that sneaky last frost comes in April, but if you can’t wait to get started and want to start harvesting before anyone else, be sure to get some stuff in the ground :)
