Our Orders This Week  
Our yummy $20 Farmer Pick box! 
So we ended up having a really mixed bag this week, weather-wise! Not exactly typical patterns for January but then these days we just have to take what we get. The deep freeze did hurt us in that a couple of our growers suffered losses of their expected harvests. We ended up switching up the Farmer Pick orders, replacing the Greens since the Swiss Chard was not good quality and we put another order of Apples for $40 boxes in place of the Spinach that got hammered by the cold. Thankfully the temps will be better, at least according to the monthly predictions!

Pickup Location Changes
We are so excited to re-start our deliveries to Cox Enterprises! We have a terrific new site for box pickups (the Rotunda). Many, many thanks to Rachel Azriel for helping to make it possible for us to bring our Good Food back to Cox families! Click here for details.

Our deliveries to our longest-running Pickup Location, Trinity Presbyterian Church will be nudged back to 1pm - 7pm starting next week to make a little room in the delivery route.

Welcome to our new Grant Park pickup location! The Atlanta Neighborhood Charter School staff will enjoy deliveries directly to the school and we expect to add another nearby site soon for the rest of the neighborhood so stay tuned. 
 
Weekly Recipes:

Farmhouse Supper Club 
We have our first 2016 dates set! We're going to keep it simple and hold the Supper Club every 2nd Saturday for the first half of the year with a special Sunday date for Valentines Day. (Fall dates will be set later.)
Saturday February 13th & Sunday February 14th 
Saturday March 12th 
Saturday April 9th 
Saturday May 14th

Our Supper Club meals are four-course menus we prepare right here on the farm with the ingredients we have from our group of farmers that week. We always have a Soup, a Salad, a Main Course (both Vegetarian and Meat options) and Dessert. The Kids Menu is usually smaller portions of the four courses and we can accommodate food allergies and preferences. Be sure to look for a lovely article about our Supper Club scheduled to be in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution January 21st! You can now order tickets just make a note in the Comments which date you want to reserve for. If you have not been out to join us for our Farmhouse Supper Club we look forward to your visit!

Bird Watching
We see all kinds of migratory birds here at the farm and this week we had a flock of Ruby Crowned Kinglets come by for a visit. Our guide book says they are common but we don't remember seeing them before.  This male was right outside the Farm Office window in oneof the Cedar trees Will's Grandafther planted.  
Ordering Options
One of the best things about our Online Market is that you only order when you want to get another box of our farmers' Good Food! In a nutshell these are the basic ways to order:

1. Farmer Pick Box - Choose from our $20, $30 or $40 box and we'll pack it up for you. Our Soup & Salad Box, Dinner Packages and Meat Packages also count as a "Farmer Pick" order type.
2. Farmer Pick with Add-Ons - You can add as many extra items to a Farmer Pick Box as you like from our Online Market, we're already packing the box for you!
3. Custom Choice Order - Fully customize your order for a $5 Custom Choice Fee. (Custom Choice orders get priority if we are short on an item and are individually packed so they get VIP treatment!)

Here are some more ways we have made it easier for folks to get your order in:
