Your Account
FREE MEMBERSHIP You can now waive your membership fee of $25 just by signing up to volunteer one full Saturday morning, 8:30am-12:30pm. It’s fun and rewarding to experience “behind the scenes” of our locally grown market. Volunteers greet farmers and customers, organize food delivery and pick up, and check-out customer orders using a ipad. Check out this online sign up sheet to find an opening. http://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090d4baca92fa13-thecumming
UPDATE CONTACT With all the hustle and bustle of back-to-school and new routines, it’s easy to forget things like picking up your TCH order. Remember that we can’t keep your items past 12pm, and we’ll try contacting you any way we know how to make sure you get what you ordered. Now’s a great time to check the phone number on your account to make sure it’s a number I can reach you at 11:45am on a Saturday. I start calling everyone who hasn’t picked up yet then, and will keep trying to reach you until 12pm, when we have to pack it all up. I hate seeing people’s food go somewhere else, and having a good phone number on your account is the best way to keep that from happening.
Main Market Location and Pick Up
Building 106, Colony Park Dr. in the Basement of Suite 100, Cumming, GA 30040. Pick up every Saturday between 10-12pm.

Champaign, OH: Hey, Hey!!
It’s that time of the week, again!! Tuesday evening finds us with two hours until market closing time!
I would like to thank all of you who came out to support me, my ribbon cutting, the weekend Holiday Open House, and just the downtown, in general.
To have so many of your faces, in and out of my shop, all weekend, filled me with so much love!
Let’s do one more thing that fills me with love…let’s get those orders in!!! That fills me with love, smiles, good cheer, and then I can fall asleep, happy, after the market closes.
Go, order, be done for the week…
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…

Plattsburgh Online Ordering: Plattsburgh Winter Farmers Market
We have been missing a lot of loyal customers at the Saturday Plattsburgh Winter Farmers Market this fall. It is from 10 to NOON at the City Gym, 52 US Oval, as before.
A couple of folks have asked, saying they don’t get emails about it like they used to. We scratched out heads, because several of us have e-newsletters we send out.
Because only 5 or 6 folks were using the online ordering system, 95% of the items ordered were from one farmer, and it takes more time and space to bring pre-packed orders we decided to not offer the online ordering this year. That means we have not sent out this blog (email). Is this the missing email list??? Is this why you haven’t been at the market?
If so, please respond to this and let us know. And come to the market Saturday! Thank you.
