Middle Tennessee Locally Grown:  The Market Is Open for Orders!


Middle Tennessee Locally Grown market

will be open for your orders till Tuesday evening at 10 pm.

Foothills Market:  The Market is Open!


It’s “hungry month,” that time of year when any crops planted to overwinter have either run out or given up and it’s too early for any new crops. Fortunately, Foothills Market still has a few produce offerings, as well as meats, sweet spreads and baked goods to help get through this “hungry” stretch.

Browse the market for our offerings, and place your order between now and Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. for pickup on Thursday.

Eat something fresh this week!

Dothan, Alabama:  M@D Update From Your Friendly Local Farmer Friends



We use the word “Sustainable” over “Organic”.
You can grow organic without being sustainable, but you cannot be sustainable without utilizing organic practices.
Thank you for your continued support of our local farmers. We count it a privilege to serve you!
Our Website: marketatdothan.locallygrown.net


WHAT A WINTER! We had no idea when we shut down for our regular winter break that things would get crazy and push our plans back. But life does happen and good or bad, it goes on for us to make the best of!

Several bits of news – we recently met with some of our M@D vendors for a brainstorming session about ways to improve the Market as we move forward. Some things may be obvious, others not so much, but we do have a plan of attack to serve you better. One thing that came up in conversation that everyone agreed on is that we will NOT lower our standards just to attract more sellers to our market. This means that even if we remain small, which we never wanted to be “big” anyway, we will always offer the best quality local foods available.

The second bit of news is that our spring schedule is in place. It is shown below and is on the home page of marketatdothan.com.

You should know that Dothan Nurseries has several spring events planned starting February 15 which is the day M@D will open this year. It’s a bit early to know which of our vendors can participate that day but we will notify you as early as possible for these events and hope you’ll come out and support both M@D and Dothan Nurseries. They have been super gracious to host us these many years and we are excited to see what they have planned.

THANK YOU FRIENDS for your support and friendship. We count it a blessing to serve you!

The Wednesday Market:  We're Open! And Happy 14th Anniversary!


Good afternoon.

The Wednesday Market is open for orders. Please place your order by 10 p.m. Monday. Orders are ready for pick up between 2 and 4 p.m. Wednesday. Check the website for this week’s product offerings. Here is the link:

This week The Wednesday Market celebrated our 14th anniversary!

On January 26, 2011, The Wednesday Market in Zebulon opened to serve Pike County and neighboring communities. From the beginning of our creation, our purpose was to provide the freshest, locally grown produce, fruit and good food available.

We believe that small, diverse, family-owned farms contribute to society’s overall health, and the reasons for buying locally are even more relevant today than they were 14 years ago. By supporting The Wednesday Market, you:

Enhance your local economy – By purchasing produce and other items from local growers you are providing stability to your local economy through the support of local businesses.

Save natural resources – Buying locally makes you an invaluable link in the process of saving resources such as fossil fuels and packaging materials. Also, we are right here in your community, so the expense of transportation and delivery is kept to a minimum.

Provide learning opportunities – Locally Grown supporters provide member growers the means to help educate our community about the importance of sustainable agriculture.

Support a way of life – The number of small farms in the United States has decreased dramatically in the last decade. Please help us preserve an honest and worthy means of making a living.

Let us support our local agricultural economy. Buy from local farmers and encourage your friends and neighbors to do so, too. Consider planting your own gardens and sharing the bounty with others. Tell everyone you know that you order from The Wednesday Market. Help us attract more producers to sell through us.

The Wednesday Market managers are volunteers, as we have been from day one. Without our teamwork and dedication, the Market simply would not happen. A few of us have “retired”, but our founders’ vision persists today.

Whether you are a brand new customer or have been with us from the beginning, thank you for supporting The Wednesday Market and Georgia Grown. It is a pleasure to serve you!

Market is open Fridays at 9 p.m. through 9 p.m. Mondays!

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!
