Middle Tennessee Locally Grown:  The Market Is Open for Ordering

The Wednesday Market:  Time to Order!

Good afternoon.

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

Technology has changed our lives in amazing ways. Do you remember what it was like to work in an office where the most sophisticated machine was an IBM Selectric III typewriter? There were no desktop computers, laptops, tablets, all-in-one scanners/printers/faxers. No FedEx. To copy documents, you had to go to a place like Kwik Kopy.

We are accustomed to technology making our lives much easier. We can do so many tasks instantly. Look for the perfect recipe? Three clicks of research and we have it! Need to place a Sam’s order for delivery? No problem, click away and hit “enter”. We take technology for granted – until something happens and we have no internet.

I do not know what happened with our weblog last weekend. I sent it out in the same manner at the same time I usually do, but some customers did not receive a notification. I have no idea why. I chalk it up to gremlins in the system somewhere.

Anyway, you do not have to wait to receive the weblog to be able to order. As long as the system is “on” for ordering, you can type in “The Wednesday Market Zebulon GA” in the search bar of your favorite web browser. We are the top result: The Wednesday Market – LocallyGrown.net. Click on it, and you will arrive at our home page. From there click “The Market” and you will see the ordering page.

If the above sounds too complex for you to follow, just pull up a previous week’s blog in your email and click the link in that blog to access the ordering page.

So, I hope this blog makes it out to all of you in Wednesday Market land. Despite the stormy weather, I hope you have a great weekend. Thank you for supporting Georgia Grown. We’ll see you at the Market.

Thanks,

Beverly

P.S. If you have questions about your order or if you need to contact us, please start with Nelda, as she is our primary market manager. I (Beverly) am also available, but I may not reply immediately. You may contact us by text, email, or phone call.

Champaign, OH:  Friday Ordering

Now that she’s back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation…
(Drops Of Jupiter-Train)

I am back from my soul vacation, chilly beach walks, communing with the ocean, taking it all in…now, I am back, and I am looking at a bare pantry, bare fridge, and sad looking cabinets…

But, no problem, because on this early Friday morning, I am placing my market order for all the good things that the market has to offer!! Are you doing the same? The Friday Ordering?

I love that I can enter the weekend knowing that my market order is placed, and will be waiting for me on Thursday…

“Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair
She acts like summer and walks like rain”
(Go ahead…you know you want to flip this song on, and turn it up…) Perfect for listening while placing those orders…

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

Russellville Community Market:  1/26/24 opening

To ensure your order is placed, make sure you click the “Place My Order” button once you have completed your shopping. You will receive a confirmation email.

Did you forget to order? Check out the extras when you pick up your order from 4-7 PM on Tuesday at the Downtown Russellville Train Depot.

I believe a comparison of local products with large grocery stores will show that our prices are quite comparable! Plus, if you shop RCM you get very fresh food with a local story! We love providing a platform for the amazing local makers and producers and helping them spread the word about local foods! Get baked goods without preservatives, meats without dyes and additives and eggs fresh from the farm! Our vendors make jams and jellies with fruits that are in season and harvest vegetables sometimes just a couple of hours before they are delivered to you! The improving weather should be good for helping the growing things recover from the cold… so, hopefully, more fresh produce will be returning soon! In the meantime, fill your freezer with local meats, stock up on fresh eggs, sample the huge variety of baked goods and try a new flavor of jam or jelly! Maple Brook Bakery will be doing a pop-up during order pick-up at this week’s market; be sure you sample some of her goodies! Isn’t She Sweet has a new Polynesian bread this week and it’s not too early to be thinking about Valentine’s Day! Check out the selection of candy and gifts! Thank you for shopping local!
Don’t forget to follow us on Facebook and Instagram!

REMINDER- We can no longer accept credit or debit cards. We will still be able to process cash, checks and SNAP/EBT transactions.

Check back frequently as our farmers regularly update what they have available. Multiple orders are encouraged. :)

Note: Ivy Rose Farm (goat milk) is out of town this week, and plan to return next week!

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!

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, then your order is NOT 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 your support!
