Arrington Bread Co:
Proud to serve fresh artisan sourdough loaves and sourdough bagels, made from scratch using our 88-year-old starter which we named “Josh Dough-ban”—like the great singer Josh Groban, we raise him uuuuuup!

Our loaves make GREAT bread cubes for Thanksgiving stuffing!

NashPhilly:

We got the your sides for thanksgiving. Have you tried our Brussel sprouts. They are loaded up with bacon, and caramelized onions and stewed in chicken stock, vinegars, Tabasco, and brown sugar. Sure to be a hit. We also have a cornbread dressing, simple and classic flavors. Green bean casserole could also be a good choice. If you want something different but also exciting and excellent try our freshly baked cornbread salad casserole made with freshly cut tomatoes, bell peppers, green onions, layered with bacon, cheese, and sour cream and ranch dressing. The creamed collard greens are also delicious and a different take on our favorite greens. Cooked in basically an Alfredo sauce with lots of garlic and Parmesan cheese.
Our pimento cheese, egg salad, sun dried tomato pesto or spinach and artichoke dip would make for a nice and light snack if you are hosting a large dinner party and want some snacks before dinner.

Soup of the week: Butternut Squash soup. It’s like a warm a hug. All the great fall/ winter spices, with some herbs like rosemary and sage. Sure to warm you up throughout the cold nights. We will also have tomato and basil bisque and broccoli and cheddar soup available this week.

Time permitting this week we will be bringing loaves of the rosemary focaccia bread to the market.

Happy thanksgiving! Hope you all have a wonderful week with your family, your friends, your loved ones and your pet’s

Thank you for choosing Northeast Georgia Locally Grown as a way to support your local producers. This farmers market allows you to preorder 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!

PICKUP TIME is Wednesday from 5-6:30 p.m. in Clayton, Clarkesville, or Gainesville.

If you do not get an email ORDER CONFIRMATION after you finish the checkout process, your order may NOT be complete. Head back to the market page, and your order might still be there waiting for you to check out! If you have any trouble or questions at all, we are here to help; simply reply to this email.

Once you place an order, be on the lookout for the order reminder email on Wednesday with further pickup and payment notes.

Thanks for supporting local farmers!

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!

I hope you will all have a chance to get a little bit of rest and enjoy some time with loved ones. The market will be closed for Thanksgiving, but this pause always gives me a chance to thank everyone for being part of this community and participating in the local food movement.

As you know, I am a firm believer in how small, local actions make big, global change. And I am passionate about local food because we all eat, everyday! So each bite is a chance for us to make an impact in our community and the world.

You might think I am exaggerating, but let me tell you about just a few ways in which your participation makes a difference. When you buy local food:

-you are benefiting your body by giving it fresh, nutrient rich fuel, that was grown for taste and nutritional quality, rather than to maximize the time it can stay on the shelf.
-you are contributing to the local economy, creating new jobs, supporting fair wages, and helping dollars stay in our community.
-you are supporting small, sustainable agriculture, and cutting down on all the resources needed to package, warehouse, transport and display food.
-you are getting to know people, building interpersonal relationships, making our community more resilient and, let’s face it, having fun!

So I want to extend my sincerest gratitude to all: the farmers who grow our food, the customers who support the market, the volunteers who help things run smoothly, the church that hosts us, and everyone else who, in big and small ways, make Conway Locally Grown not just a market, but a community.

Have a happy Thanksgiving and don’t forget to order next Sunday!

More Love,
Sandra
