Concord Street Sweets is back! Thank you to our customers who were so understanding last week when we could not fill their orders. I am finally feeling so much better today!

Here’s hoping everyone has a happy Sunday, albeit you’ll probably be spending it indoors. Maybe you have a good book to read, or a pot of soup to simmer, or if you’re like me, a mountain of laundry to tackle. Let us look forward to sunnier days.

Thank you for supporting locally grown agriculture and for choosing to purchase locally. We’ll see you at the Market on Wednesday.

ALFN Local Food Club:  The Market is Open and Food Matters Film Screening!

Good Morning Food Club,

The market is open with tons of delicious local food. All this wet weather can’t stop our growers from providing us with the best food around. Even some of our seasonal growers are starting to sell again, like…

• Crimminny cricket, it’s Crimmins Family Farm! A huge welcome back to one of our favorite certified organic growers with their delicious curly green leaf kale and red leaf lettuce.

• How about some nutritious kohlrabi kraut from The Root Cafe? Fermented kraut is a probiotic, vitamin C filled wonderfood and serves as a delicious addition to your grilled meats or morning eggs.

• I eagerly anticipate what new hummus Geek Eats will list each week. Today there’s jalapeno and Kent Walker cheese hummus, which is loaded with chunks of Kent Walker Artisan Cheese’ garlic montasio. Yum!

• Those of you getting your gardens going should check out our Garden & Home Supplies section. Get some locally-produced organic compost or compost tea from Green Acres Atkins, willow rooting compound from Food for Thought Farm, or even Cinnamon drops rabbit manure from A B C Nature Greenhouse & Herb Farm.

Make sure to mark your calendars for this Friday, March 27th when the Green Corner Store & Soda Fountain hosts a free screening of Food Matters. This is a powerful documentary that looks at health issues, the health care system, and a growing body of scientific evidence proving that nutritional therapy can be more effective, more economical, less harmful and less invasive than most conventional medical treatments. It’s at 7pm at StudioMAIN, 1423 S. Main St, and you can join the facebook event here. Hope to see you there!

Workshops
Join us for a workshop! You’ll be amazed by the plethora of information and lessons offered by our fantastic workshop instructors. Our workshops cover subjects such as gardening, nutrition, nutrient dense foods, natural remedies, essential oils, and much more!
Our goal is to host one workshop a week which will always be on Tuesday. The workshop schedule will rotate from 10:30 AM, 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM for the community’s convenience. The farm brings workshops to the community as an outreach to share the wealth of knowledge we have attained over the years. We do not charge for these events but allow the speakers to charge a fee to cover their time and supplies. We hope everyone will take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.
Please share this with all your friends and family and RSVP via FB Events and/or Meet-Up.

The next workshop is:

We start the new year all wanting to get healthier and start eating right and exercising but sometimes we get stuck because we eat and feel bloated and run down and loose our motivation.
When your digestive system is off, your health can suffer in all sorts of ways. In addition to digestive disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), bloating, constipation, diarrhea, heartburn, or gas, you may also experience food allergies, weight gain, eczema, exhaustion, asthma, and more.

*If unaddressed, these symptoms can manifest into chronic health conditions. *

Here are 10 things that you can do to heal your digestive system by Katrina at Mind Body Green…
1. Chew your food.

Good digestion starts in the mouth. When you chew your food well, it eases the work required from your digestive system, so your body can focus on other tasks instead.

2. Eat real foods.

Focus on whole, fresh foods. Avoid the “fake” stuff, including processed foods and fast-foods, which are typically high in refined salt, sugar, and processed oils. Also, they’re difficult for your body to digest, and they don’t provide any nutritional value.

3. Eat fermented and cultured foods.

Fermented foods are high in “good bacteria” and eating them will help you to regenerate your gut flora naturally. The greater the variety of fermented and cultured foods you can include in your diet, the better. Try eating sauerkraut, kefir, fermented vegetables, kimchi, or Kombucha. If you have a severe gut disorder, start slowly. Allow time for your internal environment to change and for your digestive system to become healthier and stronger.

_As Always….
_Please share with friends and family about us so that we can give more people the opportunity to buy and eat healthy! Local farmers need our support to keep providing us with all the fresh foods! If we don’t give them enough business, it’s hard for them to continue to deliver to us. Please let’s not let that happen! Tell your friends about us so we can keep the Growers supported as this is how they make their living. *_

Thank you to all of you who support Gwinnett Locally Grown!

If there is something you’d like to see in the Market, please let me know! I would love your imput!

Remember…
The Market is extending their hours! The Market will now be open from 4:00 to 7:00pm!
Having said that, if you place an order with us, PLEASE remember to pick it up on Tuesday. As I am so grateful for your orders, I also have a family at home waiting on me too! We cannot hold orders, especially cold items due to limited refrigeration space, so please be courteous and come for your order.

Thanks for all your support!

Shop often and eat well!
