Heirloom Living Market Lawrenceville :  Change


The Market is open for ordering!



Take me to Heirloom Living Market.


Yesterday was the last pickup day at the Lawrenceville location and we will be moving to Cedar Seeder Wellness Farm in Snellville on Saturday. I got most of the indcidentals packed up yesterday and Saturday is moving day. George of Cedar Seeder is bringing a trailer and we will be loading at 1:30pm Saturday. At present, George, Kathy Barnes (Coordinator of Lilburn location), Bethe Munn (Coordinator of Lawrenceville location), Sarah Rocky (daughter of my heart and Assistant Manager for the Market) and I are the only people who are signed up to help with the move. Kathy, Bethe and I are all Seniors and cannot help George load the fridge and freezer. We could use a strong back (or 2) to help George. Please let me know if you can help! 404-432-4337 We will be meeting at the Market around 12:30pm, but if you can help to load trailer, please arrive around 1:15 – 1:30pm. There are also 6 heavy tables that need to go in Bethe’s truck.


This transition is much more difficult for me than I had anticipated. Were it not for George and Krista Jones of Cedar Seeder, I would have had to close Heirloom Living Market. Since its inception/creation over 4 years ago, I have put my heart and soul into making clean, fresh, chemical free, GMO free, LOCAL food available to the community. God blessed us with George and Krista’s offer of a new location; however, I know that it is not convenient for some. The relationships/friendships formed through the Market are ones that Bethe and I treasure and hold dear to our hearts. We give thanks for you and will sorely miss seeing those of you who choose not to make the change. We wish you well and hope you will keep in touch!


In order to make things more efficient, all orders will now be placed one website. Members will be able to choose their Pickup location at Market checkout.


Take me to Heirloom Living Market.


If you want to order and pickup at either the Lilburn location or the Snellville location, you will need to register as a Member. Your membership will be transitioned from the Lawrenceville location. If you choose to shop at either Buford or Suwanee, please send me and email (heirloomlivingmarket@gmail.com) and I will let Nora know. Your membership will be honored. (Please be sure and thank Nora for this courtesy!) The links to both of Nora’s Markets are at the bottom of this email.


The following is the Newsletter sent to the Lilburn Members this morning. I will continue to send these weekly emails to you through July.


Change


Due to events beyond our control, we had to find a new Hub and Pickup location for the Lawrenceville Market. We were not successful in obtaining a new location in the Lawrenceville area; however, George Jones of Cedar Seeder Wellness Farm jumped in to save the day! George’s Farm is located off of 124 about 2 miles from the intersection of Anniston and Scenic Highway (124). We will be using this location as a Hub for the Market as well as another Pickup Location.


Ordering for both the Lilburn Market and the Snellville Market will happen at:


Heirloom Living Market
.

This name change reflects the entire Market and not specific locations!


The ONLY difference you will see is on the final checkout page. You MUST choose a PICKUP LOCATION! The drop down menu is right above the Pay Later box! Your choices are Lilburn Market or The Farm.

Miami County Locally Grown:  A new class offering! Learn to save seeds!


Ever wonder how to harvest your own seed?
Increase your self-sufficiency and get your hands dirty when you come visit
End of the Road Farm to help harvest lettuce seed at our
Seed Saving Basics class on Monday, June 26th! Space is limited, so register today!

Seed saving is near and dear to our hearts – we not only want to share with people one of our passions, but also show that seed saving is vitally necessary, absolutely doable, and oh so fun!

Appropriate for beginning seed savers, this class will include an introduction to seed saving, as well as why seed saving is critically important! See examples of our carrot, chard, peas, radishes, and spinach seed that is ready for harvest before we collect the lettuce!

In this class, conducted out of doors in one of the market gardens on our farm, you will:

1. See the various stages of growth and seed development of several veggies

2. Learn how to determine which plants you should save to harvest seed

3. Test your germination rate

4. Discover proper storage techniques

5. Take home resources and tips to aid your future seed saving endeavors, and much more!

Ages 14 and up are welcome – As we will be outside for the duration of this 90 minute class, please wear appropriate clothing and shoes for gardening, and feel free to bring water to stay hydrated!
