The Weblog
We send out cool articles and farmer highlights using a different email program. You can see the archives of those emails here and through our facebook page! We use this “weblog” every Friday evening to let you know the market page is accepting orders (look for the little add to cart buttons next to products). Northeast Georgia Locally Grown was officially OPENED on Monday, April 26th, 2010 and we are so thankful that you are helping support fresh local foods each week.
Northeast Georgia Locallygrown Availability list for Oct. 10
Good evening Locavores,
This week you will find a sweet new addition to the market. Mountain Sweet Honey of Stephens County is offering their wildflower honey for your enjoyment. Julie and Ray Civitts believe that healthy hives and strong bees are the best way to sustain a colony without the use of chemicals and use only natural organic controls around their bees.
Wildfower honey is derived from the nectar of many different flowers including blackbery, sourwood, etc.
Julie and Ray do all they can to keep their sales of honey, nucs, and beeswax as local as possible and we are certainly happy to have them on Northeast Georgia Locallygrown.
Check out their description on the ‘Growers’ page and their website.
One of my favorite uses for honey is to mix 3 TBLS honey, 1 TBLS raw apple cider vinegar, and 1 tsp sea salt in one quart of water. Sipping this throughout the day keeps electrolytes charged and my energy level up all day. Try it but be careful, it can really grow on you.
Try Mountain Sweet Honey in your favorite recipe and share that recipe with the rest of us.
Have a great weekend and enjoy fresh local food.
