New Meat Farmer

I am very pleased to welcome Greg Hutchins of Heritage Farm. Owned and operated by the Hutchins family, Heritage Farm uses organic methods to produce high quality, great tasting, nutritious food for local consumers and restaurants.

The farm is Certified Naturally Grown, with several acres in cultivation of crops, pastures and hardwoods for livestock, and a growing orchard of fruit trees and berries.

While Heritage Farm does offer fruits, vegetables, pastured meats, eggs, and educational opportunities, Greg is offering Members of Heirloom Living Market their pastured/grass-fed meat.


Heritage Farm was one of our original Farmers when the Lilburn Market opened in 2013. Due to the distance for delivery and the small size of the Market at that point, it was not feasible for Greg to continue with us. Now that we have the ‘power of three’ our numbers should be enough to keep this wonderful Farm as our Grower!


Please check out Heritage Farm’s great offerings. They offer many cuts of Beef, varieties of Sausages, Chicken and Lamb. From first hand experience, I can tell you the quality is excellent.

Be sure and check out….


Bakery on Brooks Marie has her items listed on all Markets this week. She will not have items listed next week, nor will she have any offerings on the Farmer Sales Table. I am ordering: Cornbread, for stuffing, Chocolate Chip Cookies for treats, Sandwich Loaf for Turkey sandwiches and Rolls for Thanksgiving Dinner. All of Marie’s products are Gluten Free and can be consumed by folks who have Celiac Disease. She uses Organic products and most importantly her offerings are delicious and made with love and care. Her items freeze well, so getting items this week will put you in great shape for having what you want on hand for Thanksgiving!


Dabrielle of My Daily Bread has Canned Pumpkin made from Organic Pumpkin, roasted and pureed. Perfect for the Pumpkin Pie you will be making for Turkey Day. It is Fall and who doesn’t like a good cup of Tea with Spelt Pumpkin Muffins or Organic Pumpkin Bread? Yum! The mini loaf is on special this week!


Fry Farm does not list any offerings this week as Vicky and Steve’s ‘grands’, their daughter and her husband are here visiting from their Mission in England. They will be back strong next week!


Peacefield Farm has added Radishes, Greens and 2 types of Romaine to their offerings. I sure am liking having Beefsteak Tomatoes that are juicy and delicious even with the colder weather!


The Veggie Patch always has a good variety of veggies and lots of peppers from mild to VERY hot! CHeck out the “Red” carrots!


Grow with the Flow has items listed this week but I noticed they are all Sold Out!


Be sure and get your orders in by 6:00pm!
