Market News
Welcome to October! We are thrilled to be welcoming three new vendors to the Big Canoe Harvest this week! Some of you got a sneak peak at Fellows Family Apiary’s products two weeks ago – they added their delicious Sourwood Honey after the market opened. Their honey comes in 1 pound squeeze bottles, perfect for all your honey needs. Our next new vendor, Ellijay Mushrooms, brings shitakes and oyster mushrooms back to the market. Check out their three pound boxes for an INCREDIBLE deal, or in more manageable 1 pound and 3.5 oz selections as well. Our last new vendor, Chestnut Rise Farm, is growing delicious produce on family land in Ball Ground – can’t get much more local than that! Kyle of Chestnut Rise Farm is also a certified wild mushroom forager, so we’re excited to see what else he brings to the market in the coming weeks.
Please remember as you order that per the POA’s instructions, we cannot leave your food unattended. If you need us to deliver to your neighbor or slip your order inside your house, please be sure to tell us in the comments so we can make sure your order gets to you safely!
If you have other suggestion about how we can continue to make deliveries without being able to leave products unattended, we’d love to hear them. We’re still developing the best ways to get your orders to you, and we welcome any of your ideas.
As always, if you enjoy being a member of Big Canoe Harvest, tell your friends! The more the market grows, the more additional vendors and products we’ll be able to include. As always, your feedback help shapes the market. Let us know what you think about the Big Canoe Harvest products.
Have a wonderful week, and we’ll see you Saturday!

Happy fall! This weather is delicious, and we and our other farmers have been busy planting all the veggies that will be available throughout the rest of the fall and into the winter and spring. We’ve got several new vendors in the works – including another honey vendor with some delicious sourwood honey – so keep an eye on the market throughout the week to see when the honey gets listed.
FYI, we will not be opening the market next week due to travel, so be sure you stock up on all of your favorites this week.

Thank you to everyone who reached out last week when we didn’t open the market – we’re very sorry for the inconvenience. The good news is we’re all fine, healthy, and home, and excited to bring you delicious fall vegetables as the weather begins to change. We’re nervously eyeing the remnants of Hurricane Sally and hoping she won’t dump too much water on our farms and friends. Stay dry this week, and we look forward to seeing all of you on Saturday!

Market Closed This Week
Whitney had to make an emergency trip to Dallas, Texas today, so we aren’t going to open the market this week.
Thank you so much for all of your support, and we will see you next week with eggs, fall produce, and mushrooms.

Welcome to September! The autumn vegetables are just getting started, so look out for new products over the next few weeks. We are excited to have eggs back on the market, as well as a wonderful whipped honey that Talking Rock HoneyBee Farm crafted just for Big Canoe Harvest.
Whipped honey (sometimes referred to as creamed or spun honey) is our 100% pure honey. We have whipped it and cured it until it becomes a creamy thick consistency similar to a fudge sauce. The taste is slightly different than your regular honey simply due to the process that occurs during whipping. We find it lighter and more delicate. Use whipped honey just as you would regular honey but also it makes a beautiful addition to your charcuterie boards, topping vanilla ice cream and of course any application where spreading is desired (we recommend peanut butter and whipped honey sandwiches) and also it makes creating your homemade honey butter a breeze. It can be kept unrefrigerated for a looser spread or in the refrigerator for a firmer consistency. The choice is yours!
Please remember as you order that per the POA’s instructions, we cannot leave your food unattended. If you need us to deliver to your neighbor or slip your order inside your house, please be sure to tell us in the comments so we can make sure your order gets to you safely!

There’s a lot of scary news this week about contaminated onions in the national supply chain, and consumers have been advised to toss out onions, even if they come from an allegedly safe source. The good news in this situation is that our veggies all come from well outside the national supply chain – everything listed on our market is grown here in North Georgia by the very farms who are selling you their products. We do have onions on our market this week, and we can assure you they are safe, local, and very, very delicious. As you shop, know that we take your safety as our highest priority, from our handling of the food every step of the way to wearing masks when we deliver to you.
