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:  End of Summer


August is here and with it the build up to the plenty of late summer, early fall harvest. Soon we will begin harvesting onions and potatoes, we will see squash in the stand and it will be time to begin storing food for the winter. September is traditionally a busy month for the stand and we enjoy seeing our local communities bringing home locally grown food. As we transition to this period of abundance please keep in mind that customers are welcome to put in bulk orders for storage items for the winter or late season pickling supplies as long as they are available. As always if you have a question or need clarification on when a particular produce item might be available please feel free to call or email.
