This Week at the Market

Back to the chilly temps this week! UGH! I’m just praying we don’t get the hard freeze they’re predicting! The fruit trees and blueberry bushes may not produce this year if they lose all those fruit buds.
At least there are some beautiful sunny skies coming so we can get out and enjoy that :)
Many of you ordered Ga Victory Gardens Pickled Veggies last week. Michael, their creator, would appreciate some feedback! We all love reviews, so drop one on our Facebook page or leave one in the comments of your order.
We have a few St Patrick’s Day items this week. Since it falls on a Friday, let me know if you would like to pick up on Friday (after 3pm).
We will be doing the Easter Lamb Cakes again this year. Next week I will add them to the market for pre-orders.
Have a great week!

Georgia Victory Garden Goodness!!!

Our friends from Georgia Victory Gardens have released their stock of assorted pickled veggie flavors to the market!!!
Get ‘em while the gettin’s good!!

Good Spring Morning!

It feels like spring, wonderful spring is in the air!!! And yes, here in our area that means TONS of pollen! I got in my truck this morning and can see the coating already. That means our spring allergies are also feeling it! I’ve got elderberry syrup and raw wildflower honey to help with that!
Georgia Victory Gardens will have their pickled veggies listed later on so check those out! I taste tested them all and I know you will like them as much as I did. The smoked one is my personal fave!
The farm stand is officially open for the rest of the year again. I will continue to have order pick ups from the porch as we have grown a lot this year! Once you pick up your order, you can either put payment in your cooler or up at the cash box in the stand when you head out and shop the table.
Thank you for continuing to return containers and jars. If you have any of the Publix/ Kroger wine bags, I love these for our soup orders!
Thank you for supporting our Micro Farm Market! Have a great week!

The earth is coming alive! We have so much blooming here on the farm – Bradford pear trees, peach, and plum trees. It is so beautiful! All the seedlings are looking great in the greenhouse – so excited for a prosperous veggie and flower year!
The only downside…. allergies! All this pollen makes for runny noses and painful sinuses. I try to drink lots of tea and honey (we’ll have some in the stand on Saturday!) to help that.
Have you tried McKinnon’s Cocktails yet? I love a good Bloody Mary so I’ve some on sale this week for you to try them! They are not only made locally, but in our very own neighborhood down the street!!!! Yum!
Have a great week!

Are you getting a bit tempted to think SPRING is here? Me too! I’m feeling so energized by this warm weather, sunshine, spring bulbs popping up through the soil and singing birds! I love this time of year!
Now that we’re through the doldrums of winter, I am going back to our regular farm fresh recipes. I hope you enjoyed a little variation with our culinary trip around the world!
This weekend I met with a wonderful guy that has a bright future in the Atlanta area. He has a business based in Roswell. While he concentrates on gardening, he is launching a line of pickled veggies that we are going to carry on the market! Here’s a little about Michael and his team:
“Georgia Victory Gardens can help you plan, construct, and service your vegetable garden providing quality seedlings, seeds and their enriching history.”

Some more news…. We have had our breads at Cherokee Market for the past 13 years (yes, that’s right!), and they will now be carrying our whole line of baked goods, fruits, herbs and veggies this year!
The farm stand will be opening soon as well!
Have a great week!

Good morning! This week we are featuring Greek recipes. Next week will be our last regional based menu and we will celebrate Mardi Gras! After that we will resume our usual variations of dishes.
The chickens and ducks are laying better again, but there is a high demand. I will try to keep them reserved for the online market and then put the rest in the stand.

As a reminder, pick up is on Saturday from the porch right now until I put the tent back up. If you plan to pick up after 4pm or need to wait until Sunday, please let me know ahead of time. I have had several late pick ups and no shows lately and I want to make sure you get your food in the freshest state possible!! So if you regularly need late afternoon or Sunday, that is no problem!
Have a great week everyone!

It is Mexican week!! I’m having fun with this and hope you are too!
I’m feeling energized this week with the bit of warm weather and sunshine! I have the seed trays started for flowers, herbs, and lots of greens like spinach, varieties of swiss chard and kale, collards, broccoli, and much more! I am gearing up for a big year with many opportunities for serving my community with the freshest, organically grown fruits, veggies, herbs, canned items, and baked and prepared foods. Hopefully, we will be getting our bee hives too!
Have a great week!

We are back open after a very busy week. The eggs are slacking again so I’ll list those again when I have them available.
This week our palate travels to Morocco! Let your mouth water as you peruse the flavorful dishes we have listed!

Thanks for supporting the market!
