Thank you for supporting local farms and businesses!
A&A Alta Cucina on the market this week! Order their award winning, local, small batch tomato sauces, balsamic vinegars, pestos, infused olive oils, holiday gift baskets, and more this week. We only order from them monthly so please keep this in mind when ordering. Items will be delivered for this week's pick up.
Carrell Farms Order this weekend! Carrell Farms delicious and healthy pasture raised Buffalo and Alpaca are back on the market this week. Lamb is sold out and won't be available again until end of January. They are on the market every other week. Items will be delivered for this week's pick up.
Fry Farm is a very concerned about the weather this weekend so they decided to take their items off the market temporarily. Last winter they continued to grow and overwinter much of their crops. Since we had a mild winter last year, it never got warm enough to kill off all the pests. Now they are struggling to control them. Since they are Certified Naturally Grown, they of course do not spray pesticides. Their solution is to pull up everything and not grow much again until Spring. We may see a few items occasionally but they wanted you all to be aware if you don't see them on the market for awhile.
Gibson Farm is back on the market after a couple of weeks break. They have collards, kale, variety of pepper jellies, and gluten free pumpkin pie.
My Daily Bread is now offering Organic Gluten Free Cranberry Orange Muffins and Case (12) festive fabric topped Jams/Jellies for Gift Giving for $60 ($12 savings)
Group Buy - Grass Fed Cheese will be available for pick up this week!
*Volunteer needed THIS TUESDAY for 3-4 pm shift* Click Here to sign up Thank you Karen, Veverly, Cindy, and Chuck for volunteering on Tuesday!! I appreciate you all so much! I can't run the co-op with volunteers so please consider signing up.
Unrefined Sea Salt I have a few extra listed on the market if you missed the group buy.
Leilani's Garden will be taking a break but will be back on the market soon
HOLIDAY SCHEDULE - No pick up on 12/26 or 1/2 These are traditionally slow weeks and I thought it would be a good time to take a break. There are 2 more buying weeks so feel free to stock up over that time period if you need to. Pam has offered to host Nature’s Garden Express produce boxes at her home in Buford those 2 weeks.
Sam will offer a milk drop for anyone who needs raw jersey cow milk those weeks. More details to come.
PLEASE HELP! Volunteers Needed at pick up!
Please consider volunteering during market pick up. I can’t run the co-op without your help! Shifts are 1 hour long and go by really fast. It's a great opportunity to meet fellow members. The schedule IS UPDATED through the end of 2017
Thank you in advance for your support!
