The market is open and ready for you to place orders online. You may pay here or when you pick up with either cash, check or a credit card. A 3% convenience fee is added to all credit card payments.

We’ve decided to temporarily discontinue the Wednesday market. We’re not getting the interest we were hoping to make it worth having. Our Saturday market is going strong and will continue, ordering Wednesday 10am thru Thursday at 8pm and pick up on Saturday from 10-12.

Sunday, I sent out a survey asking you to respond with your interest in some other locations and times. You can find the email/survey on the Weblog if you missed it. So far a popular pick up point is Saturday at Midway park. If adding this location works, we may look into adding others, but we would need a volunteer to cover these areas. Let me know if you are interested.

GROUP BUY
Gelatin – Collagen Hydrolysate (beef kosher) Unflavored
I’m continuing to offer the group buy orders for Gelatin. You will find it listed under the “Group Buy” category so you can order it along with your normal order.
This item comes from Great Lakes Gelatin and is only shipped in boxes of 12. The order will be placed once we reach that minimum. Cold water Soluble for use in cold beverages or recipes.
Hydrolyzed Collagen is the unique combination of amino acids in concentrated levels that promotes rapid re-production of blood cells for healing and conditioning over other proteins especially for bone and joint health care. This low molecular weight protein is easily digested for healthy enrichment in minutes after ingestion. It will not congeal because it has been hydrolyzed for quick assimilation and improved hydration to the connective tissue. Collagen is important to nitrogen balance, now considered an anti-aging product as it supports age related cartilage damage, and collagen loss. This gelatin comes from all grass fed, hormone free, pesticide free and antibiotic free cows.

PICK UP LOCATION
Building 106, Colony Park Dr. in the Basement of Suite 100, Cumming, GA 30040. Pick up every Saturday between 10-12pm.

Market Survey


Our Wednesday market isn’t getting very much interest, for the last 3 weeks we’ve gotten an average of 10 customers ordering which makes it hard to see the need for a weekday market. Maybe a different time, day or location would help.

I need to hear from you! We’ve been talking about some different options and I need to hear what you think.

Would you like a Wednesday pick up at the market between 5:30-6:30pm?

Would you like a Saturday pick up at Midway Park off of Post Rd between 1:30-2:30pm?

Would you like a pick up near Exit 12/Hwy 9 either Wednesday or Saturday?

Would you pay an additional delivery fee if delivery was available?

Please reply back to this email with your preference or suggestion. There are over 1500 of you that I’d like to be able to provide with all the great food we have available. Let us know what we can do to make it convenient for you.

Happy 1st day of June!

GROUP BUY
We are currently taking orders for Coconut Oil and Cod Liver Oil from www.greenpasture.org. You will find these items listed under the GROUP BUY category and can place them in your cart with your other items. Please plan to pay ahead for these and as soon as I get our minimum of 12 items required from Green Pasture, I will place the order. It will take about 9 days or less to receive them.

In the next few weeks I will slowly be adding some new products under a Group Buy category. These will include products from…
Old State Farms – Grade B Maple Syrup
Green Pasture – Coconut Oil and Cod Liver Oil
Great Lakes Gelatin – Gelatin
Mountain Valley Farms – Butter from Grass fed cows
Wilderness Family Naturals – Various pantry items

I will let you know when the products are listed and for how long, they will be only listed during the time of the group buy. Some will be offered once a year and some once a quarter depending on how much demand we have. I hope you are looking forward to these products coming to our market as much as I am.
