Take me to the Market.
Joyful Noise Acres Farm: The on-line market is open for ordering.
We have some wonderful bakers on our market. Riversong Bakery is a treasure from another time and place. Sara bakes from recipes of her Mother and Grandmother using the fresh and healthful ingredients of today. If you are looking for a special treat to go with a cup of coffee, tea or fresh milk, try the fig bars or Blueberry Walnut Cobbler.
Cedar Rock Dairy has the best milk, for pet consumption only. If you are looking for buttermilk, please add a message to your order of how many half gallons you want. We cannot list it on the market due to regulatory constraints.
We have a fresh order of cheese in from Meadow Valley Farm. Mozzarella, tomato, Basil and balsamic Vinegar can’t be beat!
Thank you for supporting your local farmers. If you don’t, who will?
Blessings,
Mary Beth
CLG: Opening Bell: New farmhand!
Good afternoon,
At 12:21am on Saturday July 11th, Steve and Carissa welcomed their new farmhand (grandson) into the world. Foster Ray Beagley was born in Augusta, Georgia. He is 17.5 inches and 5 pounds and should be discharged Monday morning. Pictures available upon request. :-)
Well, we knew it was coming, and now the heat of summer is here! Be sure to stay hydrated when you’re outside, and plan outdoor activities for early morning or evening when it’s not too hot. Make some frozen smoothies using cantaloupe, peaches, watermelon, or other frozen fruit. Or how about some iced tea with mint leaves? Whatever you decide, try to add some local produce to your cooling beverages.
Note from Hardin Farms: We apologize profusely for the mixup at Conway on Friday. Several days of working 18-20 hours finally caught up to us and we loaded up the wrong invoice for CLG. After all the rain, and now heat, our crops are maturing earlier than planned, which will shorten the season for corn. We greatly appreciate your understanding and patience.
Note from Barnhill Orchards: We are offering ingredients for a peach salsa, a garden veggie salsa, and a tomato salsa. We will also be offering fresh cut Zennia bouquets of various colors.
Come early on Friday for the best selection from the EXTRAS table.
The market is now OPEN for orders. Please check your email about 5 minutes after you place your order to make sure you get an order confirmation. Thank you for being a valuable part of CLG!
Have a great week!
Steve

Just a reminder if you are going to be away on vacation please make sure you put a “vacation hold” on your Nature’s Garden Express produce box if you are scheduled to receive one. You can simply do this online or give NGE a call and they can set it up for you. If you get an email from them on Friday with your box menu that means your box is NOT on hold and will be delivered Tuesday. As always you can delete your box order before their Monday morning deadline.
Grass Fed Ground Buffalo and Pastured Chicken Breasts
Carrell Farms and B&G Farms will list as soon as these items are back in stock! It will either be in time for this market or next week. Thanks for your patience! Both these items are big sellers at our market and they run out quickly!

Due to some health issues they will probably be on the market in 2 weeks. I will send out a reminder. Please keep Dabrielle in your prayers!
Mountain Fresh Creamery (repeat)
We will no longer have Mountain Fresh Creamery on the market. The supplemental feed they give their cows contains GMOs. I am currently looking for a new dairy to provide us low temp pasteurized milk. I will keep you all updated. In the meantime, please consider Cedar Rock Dairy and Lil Tots Estate.

CSA Farmers Market: UNFORTUNATE STRAWBERRY HARVEST
We just got the news that there will not be enough strawberries for us this year.
While all looked well on the surface, when it came time to start picking they discovered that the fruit set was just not there – a situation not obvious until you start looking closely underneath the leaves of the plant – and so there would not be enough berries to go around this year. This includes all of Ware farms outside orders and includes his wholesale accounts, not just us.
As I told someone who wanted to order but wanted a guarantee that they would get berries, there is no such thing as an absolute guarantee when talking about farm harvests. There are just too many variables, and sooner or later reduced or non-existent crop harvest happens to all farmers, for one crop or another (last year many farms had no tomatoes, due to tomato blight.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.
