Joyful Noise Acres Farm: Don't forget to place your orders.
The market closes tonight at 8:00pm so don’t forget to get your orders in. If you want to add to your existing order, re-open the order and you can easily add to it rather than creating a new order.
Spaghetti squash is available this week and makes a wonderful base for lasagna rather than using wheat noodles.
Enjoy!

Market News
I’ve spent the last few days suddenly scrambling after it hit me that summer was almost over and the new school year was almost upon us. I’ve got two girls in school, but even if I didn’t this community is based far more on the academic year than the calendar one. Even though we’ve had the hottest few days of the summer this week, it’s time for me to start thinking about cool season school uniforms, waiting outside for the busses, and trying to keep packed lunches hot.
The new school year brings new people to town, and new ALG customers. Welcome, all of you! I’ve seen quite a few new faces these past few weeks. If you ever have any questions about how our market operates, please don’t hesitate to shoot me an email or talk with me during Thursday pickups. The new year also changes existing household routines, so it’s easy to forget it’s Thursday and you’ve got an order waiting for you at Ben’s Bikes. I do make phone calls to everyone who hasn’t arrived by 7:30, and every week catch at least one person who has completely forgotten. I also get a lot of home phone answering machines, though, so now’s a good time to make sure you’ve got a mobile number on your account if you have one. You can change your contact info and several other account details on the Your Account page of the website.
Thanks so much for your support of Athens Locally Grown, all of our growers, local food, and our rights to eat it. You all are part of what makes Athens such a great area in which to live. We’ll see you on Thursday at Ben’s Bikes at the corner of Pope and Broad Streets from 4:30 to 8pm!
Other Area Farmers Markets
The Athens Farmers Market is open on Saturdays at Bishop Park and Wednesday afternoons downtown at Creature Comforts. You can catch the news on their website. The West Broad Farmers Market from the Athens Land Trust is open Saturday mornings and their farm stand is open Tuesday afternoons. They have a website too. A new Athens Sunday market has opened up at the Classic Center, every Sunday from 11 to 4 now through October. They have a website here: http://www.sundaycentermarket.com. The Comer Farmers Market is open in downtown Comer on Saturday mornings. The Oconee County farmers market is open Saturday mornings in front of the Oconee County Courthouse in Watkinsville. The Shields Ethridge Cultivator Market is held monthly in Jefferson. If you know of any markets operating, please let me know.
All of these other markets are separate from ALG (including the Athens Farmers Market) but many growers sell at multiple markets. Please support your local farmers and food producers, where ever you’re able to do so!
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!

The Cumming Harvest - Closed: Closed This Week - July 25, 2015
Dear friends,
Dad and I are taking this week off to attend our McDowell family reunion. We’ve decided it’s best to close the market for the week and reopen on Wednesday, July 29th for ordering. If you have any questions about food purchases, please contact the farmers directly. You can also email me with any market questions.
We hope you all have a great week and we look forward to seeing you when we get back.
Suzanne
