Heirloom Living Market Lawrenceville :  Please Read ...Countdown to Market Close

Crossfit O-Zone Market Members:

In October we found it necessary to establish minimums for each Market. If the minimum is not met and you have ordered items, after Market close, you will receive an email letting you know that your items cannot be delivered. We sincerely hope that this will not be the case; however, at the time of this writing the total for the Market is slightly more than 2/3’s of the $650 minimum.

Please be assured that we are doing everything we can to provide you with what you want from the local Farmers/Growers and Producers; but, please understand that Buying Local means supporting those who are committed to providing ‘Local’!

Check your Grocery List and get your orders in before 8:00pm this evening for delivery on Thursday!

Hop on over to Crossfit Market

Thank you for your support. We hope to see you on Thursday!

Joyful Noise Acres Farm:  Don't forget to place your orders before 8:00 tonight.

The market closes at 8:00. There are some wonderful offerings of prepared foods from Farm Fresh Foods. We also have lamb bones and shanks to make a wonderful broth. The hens are loving all the fresh green grass so the eggs are abundant and beautiful.
Joyful Noise Acres Farm will be processing several hogs this week if anyone is interested in purchasing a whole or half hog to stock the freezer. The half hog option is available on the Market under Pork.
Get your orders in and we will see you Wednesday.
Blessings,
Mary Beth

Princeton Farm Fresh:  The Market is Open

I am going to do something unusual this week. I am going to expose myself to you in a way that is pretty scary, but I am hoping that you will accept my story and see the future of our market and farm.
Last summer I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, a condition that causes widespread pain that is hard to control with meds. I was devastated and was not sure how to run our farm (since I am the full time farmer) or how to see my future in a positive light. I have battled the last 9 months in pain unsure of how to make it day to day, let alone run the farm, parent, or be a business woman. I am sure you noticed that I was not at all of the markets on Friday. My family filled in for me when the pain was just too much. They have been wonderful to me. Picking up the slack where they could and encouraging me to keep searching for answers.
Last month I finally found the answer. I found a doctor that specializes in Fibromyalgia and she did bloodwork, an intensive interview and a body test on me. What she found astounded me! I do NOT have Fibromyalgia, but a low Vitamin D level and a weak joint structure in my back. Both can be fixed. I have already started therapy, and feel improvement starting. I am renewed with hope for the future of our farm, our farmers market and most importantly myself and what I can accomplish.
I wanted to take the opportunity to thank our customers that have stayed with us through this time, when we may not have had as much available on the market. If you have given up on us, I hope that you will continue to watch for all the wonderful goodies we will have in the future. This weekend we finished our Greenhouse and we will be packing it full of seedlings that will go into our gardens this summer, fall and winter.
If you have stayed to the end of this post, I hope that this has not been TMI, but I felt that you were owed an explanation. Again, I thank you for your continued support and for the future of our farm and farmers market.
I look forward to seeing you on Friday,
Angela

FROM DOGWOOD VALLEY GREENHOUSE
This strange spring weather continues, resulting in all the spring perennials blooming at the same time. The woodland and sun phlox, columbine, coreopsis, vinca, and catchfly are still glorious. Joining them in bloom this week are the astilbes, early carnations, Sweet Williams (dianthus), Foam Flower & Jacob’s Ladder, as well as a few early azaleas. You can definitely set these perennials in your garden now, although I would wait a couple more weeks to add any annuals you might want. We also have lots of different herbs and several nice varieties of hanging baskets for your summer porch or patio.

We will soon have tomato and pepper plants in several varieties. It’s a bit early to plant them now, but you are welcome to email me at tnhomeschooler@yahoo.com for a list of varieties and to reserve your vegetable plants.

Get started here: Tullahoma Locally Grown Market

CLG:  Chicken from Grass Roots on CLG!!!
