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!
Duette, FL: Yellow Summer Squash
Dear Customers,
This week we feature Yellow Summer Squash, Simple is the theme with this squash. All it takes to achieve some big and bright flavor is a drizzle of olive oil, a bit of seasoning and lemon juice. Roast it until it starts to lightly brown and enjoy. So good. So simple. Almost unexpected – it’s not your everyday, ordinary summer squash.
Please have a look at what we have to offer and place your orders.
Thank you
David and Betty
Duette Locally Grown Market
