Simply search under all products, “Starter Baskets” and you will find both Starter Baskets where you can choose if you want the basket with the essential oil scented products, or the fragrance oil scented products.
Calico Farms: Introducing our Harvest Apple Scones this week. These sold out in a mere 45 minutes at our in-person market this week – an all-time record! These delicious treats are sold in a 3-pack – organic & dairy-free like all of or scones – and are jam-packed with apple flavor 3 ways: shredded Honeycrisp apples, cinnamon applesauce & apple juice icing. These are the best fall has to offer, I promise!
Our gluten-free fans can treat themselves to organic peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chunk cookies – sold in 6-packs & are decadent & delicious. They’re one of my favorites & I’m not even gluten-free.
All 3 of our salsas are available this week: Carolina reaper, mild jalapeno & medium habanero – so pick up your favorite variety, conveniently canned in pint jars to enjoy now or later.
Kumaika Coffee: New to our selection of Coffee we now offer Cold Coffee Kit, comes with a 24 oz mason jar with spout, 4 ground coffee bags of 1.5 oz each and instructions in how to make your cold brew coffee. Our coffee comes from the Nicaraguan mountains; grown at high altitude which generates a more complex flavor profile to our coffee beans. 100% Arabica, certified organic, fair trade, single origin, roasted in small batches in our home – Lascassas Tn. Our Light Roasted Beans are made from 100% Arabica beans, which are known for their superior quality and flavor. They are expertly roasted to a light brown color, bringing out the subtle nuances of each bean’s unique flavor profile. The result is a coffee that is rich, flavorful, and satisfyingly smooth.

We have dropped prices on a few of our pasture-raised chicken cuts like the bag of bones (great for stock) and the chicken livers (tons of iron, great for you). We will have all of our lamb cuts, and some goat meat available starting next week. As usual, we have our splendid selection of skin-softening soaps, shampoos, and lotions available.

NOTE: Cultured Traditions is taking a break from the market this 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 supporting local farmers!
