HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
Today marks our 3 year anniversary. Three years ago I had an idea to open an online organic farmers market in Cumming because I wanted an easier more convenient way to shop for “REAL” food for my family. Not sure it would be something farmers would be interested in I approached Lynn Pugh of Cane Creek Farm and so glad I did. She spent the first two years sponsoring the market and teaching me about farmers. She was the only organic farmers that I knew of and I needed to see if there may be others that would like this option of selling. She was excited to have someone interested in starting it and liked the idea of selling in this way. So with just a few local farmers and a handful of customers we had our first Saturday market on August 6th, at the old Autism Center on Hwy 9, out of the back of my van. Thanks to all of you, your support from the beginning, the farmers and their hard work, and our great volunteers, we have grown and I’m happy to say we are still growing. I couldn’t have done this without all of you!
To celebrate and show our appreciation, we’re going to have special goodies for you this Saturday. Coffee from Yonah Coffee, soap samples from Secret Garden, mini galettes from Farm Fresh Foods, mini muffins from My Daily Bread, jam/jelly from Simply Southard and more.
To celebrate THREE YEARS of outstanding service from The Cumming Harvest, From Mimi’s Mountain Home would like to offer a limited time special as a thank you to everyone who has been so supportive. This week only, we have three limited edition scents of multipurpose cleaner available. These scents are lime, pine, and pink grapefruit. Three scents for the three year anniversary…that means the price is $3.00 per bottle! There will be no refill kits, only bottles, so this limited time offer saves you $4.00—this is a great deal! Normally, the multipurpose cleaner is $4.50 for a refill pack and $2.50 for the bottle, so you’re saving over 50% of the cost! Order fast, as quantities are limited!
NEW TO THE MARKET?
Here’s some tips to help you have the best experience when ordering online.
1. ORDER EARLY…the market opens at 8am every Wednesday, popular items will sell out quickly. (Don’t wait for this email to place your order!!)
2. COMPLETE YOUR ORDER…you can lose an item in your cart if someone else orders and completes the order ahead of you.
3. LOOK FOR A CONFIRMATION EMAIL…if you don’t receive an email showing your completed order, your order was not placed and you’ll need to place it again.
4. MULTIPLE ORDERS…placing multiple orders aren’t a problem, they will be grouped together on our order form with one total.
5. ARRIVE EARLY TO PICK UP…We usually have extras from various farmers/vendors and maybe a Farmer of the Day. Arrive at 10am for a better selection and less wait time.
6. BRING GROCERY BAGS…Don’t forget to bring your reusable grocery bags to pack your order.
7. EMAIL THE GROWER…each farmer lists their own products and tries to make the listings as clear as possible so that you know what you are buying, but sometimes it may need more explanation. You are buying directly from the farmer/vendor and they are more than happy to speak to you to answer any questions.
