Lake Placid Online Farmer's Market:  October Market Open!


Hello everyone,

Although it has felt like summer the past few days, it’s still October…and time for the October Market!

We are happy to welcome Adirondack Made to the market, selling Maple Syrup and rustic wood products! All latter products are made primarily of materials harvested from their tree farm, and all the wood work is done on-site. The syrup is produced without the use of plastic tubing (instead sap is hand carried) and in an incredibly sustainable way to make a pure and delicious maple syrup. You can read more about their production methods at their website, https://www.madebytheadirondacks.com/.

Also added to the market this month is produce like peppers, eggplants, beets, and more. This is a great time to stock up on Fall and Winter staples!

As always, please email me with any questions!

Best,
Christie

Vegetables
Baked Goods
Eggs
Meat
See all products

PICKUP TIME is Wednesday from 5-6:30pm!

Thank you for choosing Northeast Georgia Locally Grown as a way to support your local producers. This online farmers market allows you to buy directly from multiple farms committed to chemical-free and local produce all year long! CHEMICAL-FREE means produce and pastures grown without synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, or insecticides. LOCAL means within 80 miles from the market pickup locations (usually much much closer). Do you know someone who grows chemical-free food in the area? Get them in touch with us. Know someone who wants fresh food? Spread the word. Put the two together, and that’s growing organically!
