Middle Tennessee Locally Grown: Weblog Entry
Good morning!
The market is open as usual, and will remain open for your orders till Tuesday at 10 pm. Please be sure to read the section of the page entitled “Important Ordering and Pickup Information.”
The farmers and managers would really appreciate your efforts to help spread the word about our fantastic market. What a great local resource for fresh, local farm products. Please pick up a few business cards to hand out to your friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Advertising is very expensive, and we want to use our slim market funds in a responsible manner.
Please don’t forget that there may be a little extra traffic between you and market this week, because of the start of the Bonnaroo Music Festival. Just allow a little extra travel time.
Farm News of the Week

Well, not exactly a new farm – actually a returning farm –
Erdmann Farm has listed Swiss chard, as well as ‘Anaheim’ and ‘Islander’ peppers, and John hopes to be able to add to our list of vegetables as the season progresses.

Here is the complete list for this week.
CLG: Opening Bell: Peaches, Carrots, Squash, Honey!
Good afternoon!
Peaches are ready for eating fresh or making jam! The late freeze we had will mean fewer peaches overall so get them while you can! Blueberries and strawberries are also looking good right now.
If you are late in getting your garden started, there are still some plants listed. At Cedar Rock Ridge, many plants are available for $1 or so. That’s cheaper than at Wal-Mart or Lowe’s. Pineapple sage, stevia, marigolds, etc.
This is the time of year when we see new items every week so be sure to search for your favorite items using the search field.
Most items are listed by 6pm Sunday, but check back again before the market closes Tuesday night to see if any other items are ready to be harvested for you! Eat fresh! Eat local! Eat for better health!
Check out over 625 wonderful items listed right now. See you on Friday!
And save your eggshells throughout the week for the laying hens! :-)
The market is now OPEN for orders. Click here to start shopping:

Please check your email a few minutes after you place your order to make sure you get an order confirmation. Thank you for being a valuable part of CLG!
Have a great week!

Grower Notes
Getting to Know You . . .
If you are not familiar with To Work With My Hands it is our great delight to introduce this blog and the wonderful woman behind it.
To Work With My Hands was well underway and going strong when I first met Karen King a few years ago and my respect and admiration for her has only grown with the passage of time. She is one of those rare individuals who manages many things well and still finds time for growth, improvement, doing things she loves and SHARING. Her sweet generous spirit is one of the unspoken things that comes through her photos, her writing and now Facebook Live videos.
If you missed her last week on Hometalk, it is available to view in the May 31 posts and well worth scrolling down for. And for more good news, three more are scheduled! Watching them in real time is fun as viewers can interact with her, and if you’re like me and have to catch one later, it’s still informative and inspirational. I’m wishing now I had stopped by Hobby Lobby for some 26 gauge wire on the way home from Market yesterday as I have a ton of great beads that I know what to do with now!
Here are the dates and times for the other Facebook Live Videos on the Hometalk page:
Wednesday June 14, 12pm
Wednesday, June 21, 12pm
You’re sure to enjoy your visit to To Work With My Hands and we hope you’ll catch Karen’s videos every chance you can. And when you find yourself waiting to pick up an order some Friday alongside a sweet lady with a familiar face, well, now you know who she is and we know she’d love to meet you too!
In Season
One of the great things about interacting with people is learning new things, and with the Market, learning about new ways to use fresh foods is always fun. Feel free to share what inspires you the way these two items have inspired us this week!
Market ChitChat
A hearty THANK YOU to everyone who was patient as their orders were collected and checked out Friday. As we transition into the hot summer months more and more tender foods will need to be kept refrigerated for safety and freshness. Your kind understanding is greatly appreciated!
Another thing to keep in mind going into summer, don’t panic if your favorite item or grower is not available on a given week! Sometimes crops need to grow a bit longer or the butcher does not meet a deadline or the grower might take a much deserved vacation!
Only one week away! Mayim Farms will be hosting a Compost Tea Workshop focusing on soil biodiversity and healthy growing practices. For more information visit them on Facebook .
This Week’s Grower Notes
We have the best Growers in the Wiregrass! Please learn more about them on our Grower Page.

PICKUP TIME is Wednesday from 5-6:30pm!
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!
