Foothills Market:  The Market is Open!


Will we or won’t we see the eclipse tomorrow? The forecast calls for clouds, but we can’t be sure what kind of clouds or whether they will be around to obscure our view. One thing you can be sure of – Foothills Market will have fresh, local food available this week!

We have our usual selection of greens and salad mix, as well as baked goods and meats. Plus, if you are trying to set up your own garden or a few container plants, we have tomatoes, peppers and herbs to give you a headstart.

Shop the market between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. We’ll have your order ready for pickup on Thursday afternoon.

Eat something fresh this week!

-SNAP customers
-customers 70 or older
-customers who are not able to drive to pickup location on Thursday
—customers who already donate each time they receive a delivery

All of my Whipped Scrubs are made with organic coconut oil, unbleached cane sugar, and castile soap, so they can be used as a moisturizing and exfoliating body wash! Also, don’t forget about my Non toxic Car Air Fresheners! These are made with high quality, clean fragrance oils that are vegan and phthalate and paraben free. They smell amazing and last over 2 weeks in your vehicle. They also make excellent gifts! I have these following scents available:

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!

Martin's Farmstand:  Weblog Entry


The farm stand is open tommorow (Saturday April 6,2024) from noon till 5 pm. Even though it is winter outside the farmstand still has carrots, beets, onions, bulk foods, and much more. We still have about 1,500 lbs of potatoes (red, white, yellow) left in storage. There are spring dug parsnips available and a few apples. Storage cabbage is abundant and still nice. The garlic scallions (outdoors) are up and almost ready for harvest. I expect that depending on weather that we can start harvesting them for the stand in 2 weeks. We already had a few garlic scallions and wildcrafted dandelion greens in a salad a few days ago. Delicious!! The overwintered spinach came through nicely. I estimate the first spinach will be ready to harvest beginning in late April. After that asparagus!!!. Daniel
