Northeast Georgia Locally Grown: Locally Grown - Availability for April 15th , 2015
Hey Local Food Lovers,
Me oh my! Things are cranking up! Locally Grown just bought our first piece of property. It’s a 5×8 enclosed trailer with a side door! That’s right, your food will now be traveling down the road in style. There’s even a big fat sticker in red white and blue that says PATRIOT! And shouldn’t it be patriotic to be eating local food from local farms!
Ok, I know the 4th of July is too far away for the flag waving but we are proud at how far we’ve come. Locally Grown started in 2010 as an experiment between two communities and about 10 or 12 farmers. Farmers in Clarkesville and in Clayton had very small markets at the time and everyone was looking for a way to reach new customers. That’s when Chuck Mashburn had the idea to bring the Locally Grown model (invented in Athens) to the mountains.
It was amazing, is amazing how quickly it began. And how quickly farmers we didn’t know found us. In fact it still works that way today. Both Waukau Meadows and Homegrown Products LLC (who just joined us this week by the way) found us and gave us a call just in the last several months.
Growth was slow. The first 3 years sales were under $40,000 and were only growing by a bit of a %.
Then last year. POW! Growth! The move to Gainesville helped. But sales were up, way up at our original locations too. In fact, today, Clarkesville is by far our biggest location. We expect Gainesville to catch up and pass them soon, but way to go Clarkesville! For such a small town we have a lot of dedicated local food eaters. Most of them come every week, and many have been there since almost the beginning.
As things change we hope to retain everything that Locally Grown has always been, a laid back, fun-loving way to help farmers distribute food to more people, while ALSO becoming some new things as well. For example, we hope we’re getting better at communicating who are farmers are and why they are special. This year we have a featured farmer calendar and as each farm comes up we hope to share with you some of the things that we LOVE about the farms, the farmers, their products, and what inspires them to produce this wonderful food!
The whole point of the FEATURED FARMERS is for you to get a chance to meet some of these folks. Just imagine having a mental image of the face of the farmer behind almost every meal you eat. That’s possible now!
Well, that’s all the time I have tonight. Really want to encourage folks to check our newest growers Tara and Russ Grindle at Homegrown Products. They are egg producers and soon to be lots of veggies in the weeks ahead. Their website link is on our FACEBOOK and under our GROWERS section. Pay their site a visit and order some eggs this week and in the weeks ahead!
Thanks to you all for your dedication and EAT WELL,

Market News
This was a beautiful weekend, perfect for working out in the garden. I’ve not even started on mine, but it’s really never too late to put something in the ground, and it’s prime planting season now. I was one of the founding farms of Athens Locally Grown, back in 2002, but these days I’m living back in the city of Athens again, and haven’t established gardens here. Weather like this, though, makes me want to throw seeds in every bit of dirt I can find, wherever I find it.
If you’ve been preparing your garden, or just thinking about starting one, be sure to check out all of the live plants offered by our growers through the market. Sure, you could run off to Home Depot and buy some mass-produced seedlings soaked in synthetic fertilizers and sprayed with fumigants, but you can also get hardy seedlings grown by the same people cultivating plants for their own vegetable beds, free of synthetic chemicals.
The average last frost date for Athens falls this week, but you never know when a weird cold front will blow through, wreaking havoc on the little plants. If you’ve put out summer plants like tomatoes, peppers, squash, and eggplants, keep an eye out on the forecast for the next week or two, just in case you need protect them. The average last frost date for some of our growers won’t come for another month, further up in the mountains, but that just means more variety for our market.
Why am I encouraging you to grow your own food when I’m in the business of helping growers sell you food they grow? For one, studies have shown (and my own experience confirms) that people who grow their own gardens tend to actually increase their yearly purchases at their local farmers markets. Once they take an interest their food so strong that their begin growing what they can, they find that they can rely even more on their local growers for things that they used to get at the grocery store. And besides, my goal is for every community to become less reliant on food grown elsewhere and shipped in from long distances. And you having your own little patch of garden in your yard is a big step in helping Athens do just that.
Thanks so much for your support of Athens Locally Grown, all of our growers, local food, and our rights to eat it. You all are part of what makes Athens such a great area in which to live. We’ll see you on Thursday at Ben’s Bikes at the corner of Pope and Broad Streets from 4:30 to 8pm!
Other Area Farmers Markets
The Athens Farmers Market is open on Saturdays at Bishop Park and Wednesday afternoons downtown at Creature Comforts. You can catch the news on their website. The Comer Farmers Market is open in downtown Comer on Saturday mornings. The Oconee County farmers market is open Saturday mornings in front of the Oconee County Courthouse in Watkinsville. The Shields Ethridge Cultivator Market is held monthly in Jefferson. The other area markets are all still closed for the season, I believe. If you know of any markets operating, please let me know.
All of these other markets are separate from ALG (including the Athens Farmers Market) but many growers sell at multiple markets. Please support your local farmers and food producers, where ever you’re able to do so!
We thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible!

Heirloom Living Market Lilburn: Market News - Check it out!
Greetings All:
Farmer of the Week at Lilburn Thursday ~ Dabrielle of My Daily Bread
Come and meet the wonderful lady who bakes the organic breads and goodies that everyone loves! Dabrielle and her son, Brandon, both spend their days in the bakery to produce the wonderful offerings by My Daily Bread. Her husband Bruce is also involved in the process, assisting where needed, keep track of inventory, delivering and keeping Dabrielle on her toes! Don’t forget to check out all of the Organic Baked Goods on the Market this week and get your orders in before close. Have you tried her new Gluten Free Glorious Morning Muffins? Samples were available at Market last week and folks loved them. I am sure that Dabrielle and Brandon will have samples to share when you see them this Thursday! Get there early and say hello!
Market Tidbits…
Greg Hutchins of Heritage Farm has some new offerings: Bratwurst, Smoked Bratwurst, Smoked Polish Sausage, Sweet Italian Sausage, Bacon, Bacon (end and pieces), Jowl Bacon, Scrapple and Breakfast Links! Of course those are in addition to the other great Beef, Lamb, Pork products he has listed! I just wanted to make you aware of the additions!
Ok, for those of you who are transplanted from the North, you may be wondering: “What is Jowl Bacon?” It is Bacon that is made from the jowls/cheeks of the pig! Although I am a Texan and grew up in Ohio, our Farm produced the food that we ate and I remember my Mother and our Cook using Jowl Bacon in Beans, Black Eyed Peas and Greens. A favorite Summertime lunch was Pork Jowl Bacon and Fried Green Tomato Sandwiches! From my own experience, the fat ratio of Jowl Bacon is more than that of ‘regular’ bacon. I cook it in the oven and use a Bacon press, being sure to drain the fat several times during cooking. Cooked crispy, it is a real treat!
Don’t forget, Turkeys are available for Pre-Order and average about 15#‘s. There is a limited number available, so if you like Turkey… Not all of the Turkeys that are getting fat and sassy will be offered as whole birds. Greg has plans to offer Ground Turkey and make the bones/carcasses available for purchase. I am imagining lots of Turkey Bone Broth in my future!
Burnell Farms is going strong bringing us some great veggies! Several weeks ago they added Hibiscus Flowers, (great for drying and making Hibiscus Tea), Fennel, Kohlrabi and ’Cheddar’ Cauliflower. The beautiful and delicious ‘Violet Queen’ Cauliflower is now available! Burnell Farms also offers: Brussel Sprouts, Broccoli, several Lettuce varieties, ‘Savoy’ Cabbage, Swiss Chard, Collard Greens, Fennel,several types of Kale, Spinach and those awesome little Cream Potatoes!
Vicky, Steve and Matt Fry of Fry Farm have gorgeous and delicious ‘Red Kitten’ Spinach and Rutabagas! I was at the Farm on Thursday before Market and it is beautiful – so many veggies planted! We should be seeing Leeks very soon! Vicky had some available but not enough to offer at Market – soon, very soon!
I have always roasted the Rutabagas but Vicky suggested boiling them and mashing them! Be sure and boil until just tender in an ‘open’ pot. Placing a lid on the pan will trap in gases that will take away some of the great flavor!. Drain and mash with salt, pepper, garlic and butter! Great alternative to potatoes. Rutabagas contain high levels of antioxidants, Vitamin C, Potassium and Zinc. Rutabaga is really a cruciferous veggie. It includes phytochemicals which eliminate carcinogens in the body as well as assisting the liver in processing harmful toxins. Delicious and good for you ~ Definitely a ‘win-win’!
Yesterday, I made Rutabaga, Cauliflower and Potato Soup adding sauteed celery and onion. I served with bits of Bacon and a dollop of Sour Cream! Delicious!
I have spoken with Doug of Doug’s Garden who is busy, busy, busy training new helpers, getting seedlings planted and starting to harvest some items! Items are stating to appear on all of the Markets as produce is ready to harvest! This week Spinach and Bluebell Plants are available on all Markets!
Bluebells are one of my favorite plants and Doug’s Mountain Bells are exceptional! Although I am a Texas-Bluebell-kind-of-girl, (owing to the fact I am from the Lone Star State), I love the beauty and symmetry of Mountain (Blue)Bells! The picture was taken by Doug in his garden. Impressive!
When adding Mountain Bells or any other woodland perennials to your landscape, always plant them with companions that can take over when the early spring plants lose their luster. It’s important to have a multi-layered garden to keep year-round interest. Hostas, for instance, will just begin to shine by the time these bluebells are done.
Need Heirloom/non-GMO seedlings? The Veggie Patch has got you covered. Choose from their offerings of Fruit Seedlings, Herb Seedlings or Veggie Seedlings and plan for a successful and abundant harvest! Also check out their Veggie offerings!
Marie of Bakery on Brooks bakes Organic, Gluten-Free Breads, Cornbreads, Sweet Breads and Cookies for us. She is constantly experimenting with new items and this week you will see her Gluten-Free Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls, Cinnamon Raisin Bread and Butter Cake in her offerings! Taste tests of the Cinnamon Rolls and Cinnamon Raisin Bread were full of “oohs and aahs” and “This is fantastic!” Be sure add to your order! These are too good to be missed!
Kathy Barnes of So-Koi and the Coordinator of the Lilburn Market has added Organic Ceylon Cinnamon to her offerings. Ceylon Cinnamon (sticks or freshly ground) is the highest quality and best tasting Cinnamon available! It has a delicate, sweet and complex flavor not found in the common Cassia Cinnamon. Kathy also offers Einkorn Grain (berries or freshly ground) and Redmond’s Real Salt in addition to her wonderful handmade Retro Aprons, Lanyards and other items!
Check your Grocery List and get your orders in before 8:00pm Monday for delivery on Thursday!

It has been a beautiful weekend, and we hope you were able to enjoy it before this next stretch of rain keeps us indoors for awhile!
It will be about the end of May before we start experiencing a shift to some different, warm weather crops. Until then, please enjoy our selection of early spring greens, lettuces, radishes and tender turnips.
The Bloomy Rind is back with us this week, so make sure you check out their selection. Along with a baguette and a nice salad, you are set!
