Several of my friends grow blueberries, and I have notice that this year, there is a bumper crop. Ever wonder how you can use blueberries beyond muffins, pies, and pancakes?

2024 FAYETTEVILLE DELIVERY SERVICE
Delivery service by Seeds that Feed is added as an item with a small charge, to help their volunteers cover the expenses of delivery to Fayetteville addresses.
Delivery will still be FREE for the following Fayetteville customers:
-SNAP customers
-customers 70 or older
-customers who are not able to drive to pickup location on Thursday
-customers who already donate each time they receive a delivery
If you are a customer in any of the above categories, please put “Free Delivery” in the comments as you finish ordering.
If you request Fayetteville delivery and you are NOT in the above categories, please choose delivery service as one of your items when you order. You can find this item under Delivery and the cost is $7 total for each delivery date. This service will be charged to your order. We make sure that Seeds that Feed receives all of those fees.
NOTE: ALL DELIVERY ORDERS (PAID AND FREE) MUST FORWARD THE ORDER EMAIL TO delivery@seedsfeed.org AFTER YOUR ORDER IS COMPLETE. That insures that you are on the delivery list. Thank you.
INFO YOU ALREADY KNOW IF YOU HAVE ORDERED BEFORE..IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST ORDER PLEASE READ ON:
DRIVEBY PICKUP TIME AT THE LIBRARY OUTDOOR PARKING LOT is THURSDAY afternoon from 4:30-5:30. Note: if you already know that you cannot make it by 5:30 pm Thursday and you want to order this week, just reply to this email or text 479-935-5111 and we will work with you on a plan.
SEARCHING TIP: On large categories such as baked goods or meats click on the category to get a drop down of specific items in that category.
HOW TO CHECK ITEMS FROM A PARTICULAR SELLER: Scroll down on left side until you see “show specific growers”. If all the boxes are checked, you can click on “reverse all” then click the boxes on or off of those sellers you want to see. Then click “show specific growers” again.
BUYING TIP: If you see items that you want but not much available, order and pay and then log back in and continue shopping. Your orders will be combined and you will only be charged once.
SNAP CUSTOMERS ONLY: you may choose pay at pickup and bring your EBT card on Thursday. We will swipe your card and match up to $100 of your order. NOTE: please do not bring tokens or match cards to pickup at the online market.
NOTE: New customers and new orders are always welcome—no minimum order required, no weekly order required.
TIPS:
1) Sellers sometimes add more products later in the ordering period, so be sure to check back. The product list changes each week, even from the same seller, so it’s worth exploring the categories you are interested in.
2) Multiple orders from you at different times will be automatically combined into one order before pickup and you will only be charged once.
PICKUP LOCATION:
The OUTDOOR parking area at the south end of the new part of the Fayetteville Public Library. Follow the line of cars towards the building and stay in your car in line while we get your order.
Thank you for your continued support of the online market.

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 online farmers market allows you to buy 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, then your order is NOT 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 your support!

Martin's Farmstand: 4th of July Update
Yes we are open today! 10am-6pm
The red raspberries are ripe and abundant and seem to fly out of the stand as soon as they are brought in. And there is some black raspberries ready for picking as well. Anyone is welcome to come and u-pick for raspberries. U-pick is happening as long as the stand is open. Tuesday through Saturday 10am to 6pm.
River Greenwood told me this morning that picking raspberries is really hard- because they keep falling into your mouth when you’re trying to pick them! ????
Besides that we have all sorts of veggies in the stand along with herbs- We have lots of cumcumbers that have now dropped to summer prices. As well as, peas – snap and hull- that will likely be gone by next week so come and grab them while they’re fresh and ready.
We look forward to seeing you!
