Vendor of the Day RESCHEDULED
What a crazy couple days we’ve had with winter weather! Thank you all for your support with the pick up day change! Because we changed the day My Daily Bread will be Vendor of the Day this Tuesday.
Mark your calendars! This Tuesday, February 24th My Daily Bread will be Vendor of the Day from 1pm to 3pm.
You’ll get an opportunity to meet Bruce and sample some delicious organic baked goods and other products they offer on the market. It’s always fun to meet who makes your food!
GROUP BUY: Wilderness Family Naturals & Raw Mixed Nuts
This weekend we will be taking orders for organic pantry items from Wilderness Family Naturals. These items include healthy oils, spices, cacao, grains, rice, coconut products, natural sweeteners and skin care products. We will also take orders for bulk Organic Mixed Nuts -Raw from Nuts.com since WFN is out of bulk soaked & dried mixed nuts.
Case Pricing for Organic Raw Mixed Nuts
In order to get a reduced price on the mixed nuts we need to order 25lbs as a group. This delectable combination of raw organic mixed nuts includes organic cashews, Brazil nuts, walnuts, almonds, pecans, pistachios, macadamia nuts, and filberts that are sure to please.
I recommend soaking as Sally Fallon and the Weston A. Price Foundation suggests, and then dehydrated at low temperatures to make your own crispy nuts.
All prices on the website include discounted bulk pricing, taxes, fees and shipping.
THIS ORDER WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE TO PICK UP THIS TUESDAY
This is a pre-paid pre-order. Payment is expected by this Tuesday. I will send out an prior to pick up when it is available. Due to shipping it will take at least 2 weeks before you can pick up.

_Grower Highlight of the Week!
Bo & Lisa’s Lil Patch
Certified Naturally Grown
*_*Lisa Says…
Bo & Lisa are not new to farming , but are new to having our very own farm.
We have 14.28 acres in beautiful Aragon Ga., 70 miles from Lilburn, Ga. We share a passion and love for farming naturally with wholesome products that are good for your health and budget._
*_*Bo is a beekeeper! We have Italian bees and produce RAW honey . We only strain it once and never heat our honey, so that you receive the FULL nutritional benefits. Our bees are happy to pollinate our blueberry field._
*_*Yes! We are blueberry farmers too! Our blueberries shrubs are 4 years old and
are producing more each year. We do not use any chemicals, only a natural fossil substance (Diatomaceous Earth) that is edible and healthy for all to eat._
*_*We appreciate your willingness to support local farming and our desire to be good stewards of the land we have been given. We would like you to know that a portion of our sales go to a Christian Health Retreat and Healing Center (homeforhealth.net) in Kentucky for healing spiritually as well as physically through Jesus Christ . This facility is run by medical missionaries and is close to our hearts as Lisa is a cancer survivor! We donate funds to help with scholarships for those who have no means of getting help for their illness. We donate as well to other cancer centers such as the AFLAC Cancer Center for children in Atlanta. You can read about how Jesus healed Lisa at : http://www.cancer-research-awareness.com/god-healed-lisa.html
Thank you for letting us grow healthy nutrient dense food for your family and for helping to support these other causes. Be well friends and many blessings to you and your family.
In His service, Bo and Lisa*_*
I’m working to get natural dog and pet treats on the Market! Stay tuned for that!
I’m looking to post a survey real soon to see everyone’s interest in different items. We have opportunities to get some really cool items but there are minimum limits for some to get them offered on the Market. So be looking for that as I share the wonderful items available to us and see your interest!
Is anyone interested in Azure Standard? They are a group buy that is delivered once a month. We have the opportunity to participate….so go on
https://www.azurestandard.com. Please email me if you would like to participate!
_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!
Browse through to see all the great Growers we have and maybe you will find something new!
We have Wilderness Family Naturals Coconut Sugar, Flour and Organic Popcorn in the Market for sale! When you come to pick up your order, check them out! They are also now online!
