New Grower: Peacefield Farm

I am very excited to welcome Jeff and Tammy Sosby of Peacefield Farm to our family of growers and producers!

They are a family owned Certified Naturally Grown (CNG) Farm located in Carnesville, GA.

They strive to offer the best healthy,naturally grown produce the way God intended it to be. They are CNG but follow the national organic guidelines.

They offer hydroponic tomatoes year round,and seasonal produce that we grow outside on raised beds with drip irrigation from their wells,and inside high tunnel houses on raised beds.

They make their own compost with all plant materials using no animal manure and make our own organic fertilizer as a supplement to the compost. Thus providing healthy grown produce leaving a small footprint in the environment. Psalm 34:8 Taste and see that the Lord is good!

Look for their locally grown produce on the market starting this weekend!

We thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible!

THIS JUST IN FROM BROWN’S HOLLAR FARM
We are selling fresh pumpkin pies again this year as a fundraiser for the Grundy County/Tracy City farmers’ market. Proceeds will go toward a storage room and possibly one addition. We will deliver on the TUESDAY before Thanksgiving UNLESS you, the customer, request a different date. You may order early, and be sure to put your desired date in the “Leave a Message for the Grower” section.

This week, we also have kale and organic turnip greens.

Thank you all so much.

THE COFFEE BREAK OPEN HOUSE
The Cumberland Farmers’ Market would like to announce its fall coffee break happening on Dec. 2, 2014, from 2-3 p.m. (before market) at the Sewanee Community Center.

This Coffee Break will target holiday gift-giving to get our customers (and new customers from the Sewanee community) to come see the market and order our wonderful products online. Artisans and farmers will be displaying their wares to show everyone what will be available on the market. Customers will also be able to buy products at this time—no waiting to order!

Everyone is welcome to enjoy the free parking, free entrance, and free samples! As the weather gets colder, doesn’t it sound wonderful to have hot coffee or tea and holiday treats to sample before you buy!!

Please come and meet all the farmers you haven’t met and spend some time visiting with us.

We will be making more announcements as vendors sign up, so please put us on your calendar for this important date. We hope to see you all.

PLACING AN ORDER
Before you order, be sure you see the little shopping cart. If you do not, log out and log in again. If this fails, turn off your computer completely and start again. This includes ordering from smart phones.

If you want to leave a comment for a grower, be sure to put it in the “Leave comment for grower” area in RED beneath the item you’re ordering. Placing comments in the market manager section will not be seen by the growers.

BIOINTENSIVE GARDENING
We have had several requests for information on biointensive gardening/farming. If you are interested in a very informal discussion group on this subject, please let us know so we can add you to the list, either on the teacher or student side. Everyone is welcome, including those not currently customers or growers on the market.

NEW DELIVERY DRIVER
If you would like to have your market order delivered, have you contacted Rachel Lynch, the new Sewanee delivery driver? E-mail: radelo50@yahoo.com or phone 931-598-0774.

Don’t forget: Rachel is NOT affiliated with the CFM and, therefore, is not authorized to accept payments of any kind on behalf of the CFM. Payment of all CFM orders MUST be made in advance of Tuesday’s delivery. Checks must be mailed in time to be posted to customer accounts before closing of market ordering on Monday. To ensure your account always has a positive balance, the CFM prefers payments in increments of at least $100.00. Mail checks made out to CFM to Kir Strobel, 744 Timberwood Trace, Monteagle, TN 37356.

Should at-home delivery not work for you, your second option is to leave your order at the Center to be picked up by you or a designée by 6 p.m. Wednesday. As with any left-behind order, there will be a $3.00 fee unless that order has been prepaid in full in advance. Don’t forget there is no freezer at the Center for the forseeable future, so it is imperative your items be picked up in a timely manner.
