What will you be bringing to the market this year? 
Original artwork, hand-illustrated coloring books and seasonal crafts.

How frequently will you be at the market? 
Once a month.  The fourth Saturday of each month.

How did your company get started? 
I am a local artist who also teaches art to children at John Lewis Elementary School in Brookhaven.  Art by Melissa Hill was formed in conjunction with the publication of my coloring book "A Dream Colored True".  

What do you wish people knew about your product? 
My coloring book is hand-illustrated , and I am most inspired by the precious beauty of nature that exists all around us.  

What is one surprisingly awesome way to use your product
Did you know that coloring books can be used as a stress-reliever?  Studies have shown that coloring stimulates both sides of the brain which creates balance and calmness.

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market?
I love the location of the Brookhaven Farmer's Market.  So many people can walk to the market from nearby areas, including me!  I also love seeing all the adorable dogs that visit the market with their owners.

What will you be bringing to the market this year? Cold Brew Coffee...sold by the cup, served iced and hot, as well as in our 32oz howlers!

How did your company get started? We were tired of the corporate scene and wanted to build a company on the standards of being sustainability-minded with ethically-sourced ingredients, and join the local food movement. Our passion for great coffee became the inspiration and while Billy was training for an ultra marathon, experimentation with blends and brewing began.

What do you wish people knew about your product?  Cold Brew Coffee is better for your system than hot brew. You get approximately double the caffeine and half the acid! Also, because it is naturally sweeter due to the process, a lot of folks don't have to add anything to it.

What question do you never get sick of customers asking?  Can I return my howler? Yes, (in the name of sustainability) we have a refill system and customers get a discount!

Your favorite story about your company or the market? Josh (our normal Brookhaven guy) and Amy (Mad Mama) often serenade customers on Saturday mornings. That speaks to the close-nit and warm environment of the market!

Do you have any recommended recipes or surprisingly awesome ways to use your products? Cold Brew is very versatile - in cocktails, desserts (tiramisu), and can even be used as a brining solution for meat. Check our website for new recipes.

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market?  BFM is very welcoming to new types of products to keep the offerings fresh and relevant and they always have the customers in mind.

What will you be bringing to the market this year? Cookies, of course!

How did your company get started? My husband and I live an active lifestyle and are conscious about what we eat but we also have an unrelenting desire for sweet snacks.  So when we go for that sweet treat we want it to be full of flavor and worth every bite.
I began experimenting with cookies because they are bite size, comforting and satisfying.  Cookies are a fun food for all occasions and naturally portioned to be kind to our waistlines.
Using the finest ingredients and no preservatives, we bake up the classic childhood favorites like chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin along with more sophisticated creations like our Midnight Moonpie, a Dutch chocolate cookie with coffee accents and white chocolate chips.

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market? The visitors to the Brookhaven Farmers Market are amazing!  The location is convenient for both regular patrons as well as folks visiting the market for their first time and the variety of vendors is always great to see. www.curlysuescookies.com

How did your company get started? I started my company in 2010 after much encouragement from friends, family, foodies and lovers of good smoked fish!
 
What do you wish people knew about your product? It is smoked fish like no other!  When good quality fish is really fresh, it is a shame to over smoke or over salt the product as you loose the flavor of the fish.
 
What question do you never get sick of customers asking? How long will it last in the refrigerator?  6 weeks unopened.  Once the bag is opened, it lasts 2 weeks.

Your favorite story about your company or the market? I brought platters of my smoked salmon to my children's school's fundraiser and several dads followed me around with forks in hand as I put more out!

What will you be bringing to the market this year?
Foodie Cubes, 1oz frozen cubes of pureed fruits and vegetables

How frequently will you be at the market?  
Once a month, always on the 1st Saturday of the month

How did your company get started?
I started out as a personal chef preparing baby food for busy families in their homes. As interest grew, not only from families with little ones but also athletes who like Foodie Cubes for their smoothies I decided to make the jump and enter the Farmers Market space.

What do you wish people knew about your product?
Foodie Cubes are concentrated real food and offer a unique and easy way to introduce your little one to a whole range of pure organic flavors. They also add a boost of flavor to any smoothie, soup, salad dressing, cocktail, dessert or other culinary treats.

What question do you never get sick of customers asking?
What's so unique about Foodie Cubes? If you imagine your baby's palate like a white canvas you as a parent have the incredible privilege to put some color on that canvas. With our range of pure flavors, you will be able to stimulate and shape his palate and help him develop a lifelong passion for healthy food.

Your favorite story about your company or the market?
My three kids who grew up on Foodie Cubes are my best brand ambassadors. They love real food, are willing to explore new cuisines and are just so much fun to share food with.

What is one surprisingly awesome way to use your product?
It's strawberry season right now so I suggest you use our Strawberry Foodie Cube for your margarita.

Do you have any recommended recipes or ways to use your products? Every time I come to the Market I bring a Foodie Cubes Smoothie Recipe. And of course we have list of favorite flavor combinations for your little one.

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market? This is my first Market season so it's all still new but I really like the ambiance both with the customers as well as amongst the vendors. It seems like a really nice group of people.

What will you be bringing to the market this year? Honey, honey candy, pollen, beeswax candles, honey pecan toffee and honey related products.

How did your company get started? We live on an acre lot in a subdivision. Coming from a farmer family background, of course, it was important to us to have fruit trees and gardens, but there was a problem...No fruits and no vegetables would grow on our property!
Thinking it's my soil (red clay). I gave the county agricultural department a call to see if they could help me. They told me it's not the soil. The problem is the lack of wild honeybees. When was the last time you went outside and saw a honeybee? You see every other kind of bee even new bees that haven't been named yet, some bees that look as if they could carry your dog off, but no honeybees. So I decided to buy a hive and have honeybees in my yard and hoped to have fruits and vegetables. And I did! So did the neighbors!!  
I started to make my own hive boxes and before I knew it I was up to ten hives.  My honey was in such demand that I had to keep growing!I now have 5 bee yards there are in Kennesaw, Acworth, Woodstock, Marietta, and Cartersville.

What do you wish people knew about your product? This January it won first place in the Country! We are pretty proud of that one.

What question do you never get sick of customers asking? How does the honeybee's make the honey? 

Your favorite story about your company or the market? At one of our markets we had the bees in an observation hive and a female customer was looking at the bees and her husband walked up behind her and pinched her. She screamed, jumped and turned around and slapped him!

Do you have any recommended recipes or surprisingly awesome ways to use your products?
Honey BBQ Sauce:
Quarter cup of honey, Quarter cup bbq sauce, Fresh ginger, Garlic, Salt and Pepper and splash of tabasco. Mix in bowl spread on chicken or ribs and yummy!

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market? We are new to the BFM this year but we are excited about it!

Your company Name: Heritage Farm

What will you be bringing to the market this year?
Certified Naturally Grown produce, eggs, pork, sausages, bacon, chicken, duck, turkey, grass fed and finished beef and lamb. We also have a few rabbits on occasion.
 
How did your company get started? Lainya and I both grew up in farm oriented families and have gardened and had cattle for years. We owned and ran a commercial window/glass business for a long time but when the economy tanked in '07 and '08 we had to find a new way to make a living. We started Heritage Farm to create a home-based business where we could raise our children (4), homeschool them and integrate our family life into a new "heritage" for our children.
 
What do you wish people knew about your product?
I would want them to know how much time and effort we spend loving on and providing a quality environment for the animals we are entrusted to raise. We believe the food cycle we create is a very useful and healthy one and we put tremendous effort into making sure our livestock are loved, cared for, fed well, have the best life we can give them and are humanely harvested and processed. I would also like for them to know that in all our operations, both protein and vegetable, we maintain the highest standards of sourcing on seeds, feed, fertilizer, soil amendments and the like. Our farm only uses USDA certified organic feeds and we are Certified Naturally Grown. We are also a soy free and non GMO farm and believe our commitments in these areas sets us apart from most other farms.

What question do you never get sick of customers asking?
Can I have another pound of ........? (fill in the blank)
 
What is your favorite story?
My favorite stories are always of our four children (5yrs-18yrs). There are many to be told but I think to save them too much embarrassment we will tell them as we see you!! My most favorite though is how I've been blessed to watch them grow and mature in our family farm business.
 
Do you have any recommended recipes or surprisingly awesome ways to use your products?
Our cast iron okra (prepared by daughter Grace) is pretty awesome and Dad's green egg smoked anything always tops the charts. We frequently post these on facebook and pass them out at Markets.
 
What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market?
I am a new vendor so I don't yet have any onsite experience but I will say that I love the fact that it is another great neighborhood farmers market that is promoting local and healthy food. We have followed a bit over the last couple of years and are EXCITED to become a vendor!

Nonna's Family Kitchen was born out of my love for cooking that was instilled in me from my Grandmother as a young girl. After spending most of my life as a Regional Executive with a major cosmetic company, my family and I wanted to bring the wholesome, real, and flavorful tastes that we share in our Sunday family dinners to the world. Nonna's Family Kitchen is my love letter to my Grandmother. We look to bring fresh, authentic, quality products from our table to yours.

Your favorite story about your company or the market?
When we began our business, the idea of weights and measures was unheard of. I mean, how do you describe "this much" or "some of" as a way to know how much we would need for more than a houseful of people. My son and I fought quite a bit over this, and we came to a compromise. Now, I know how much a handful is in ounces and cups.

Do you have any recommended recipes or surprisingly awesome ways to use your products?
Our sauces can be used on a variety of dishes from meat to poultry to fish to vegetarian dishes. We'd share the recipes, but then we'd have to kill you. ;)

We are a family of face to face people. You never really know who you're customer is until you speak with them in person. Being a part of the Brookhaven Farmers Market is truly the only way we could ever want to grow our business.

What will you be bringing to the market this year?
Organic, Non-GMO, and North Georgia Mountain Forest fed Happy Chicken Eggs.

How frequently will you be at the market?
Every Week!

How did your company get started?
Our founder, Papa Bear, has loved birds of all kinds since he was a little boy. At the age of 8 years old, he raised over a thousand chickens by himself, providing eggs and joy to his community. When all of us crossed paths Papa Bear shared his love of birds with us, set us up with close to 200 organically fed baby chicks and right before he crossed over to the other side our happy hens started laying the happiest chicken eggs we’ve ever tasted.

What do you wish people knew about your product?
I wish people could see how happy of a life our chickens truly live – they feed off and roam the land all day long, breathing in fresh North Georgia mountain air up here in East Ellijay, Georgia. Since we can’t bring everyone to our farm, one of our goals will be to always bring a piece of it down to the market with us. Our hens are also fed an all organic and non-GMO diet by their moms and dads – Alisha, Sylina, Bill, and Thomas.

What question do you never get sick of customers asking?
What’s your story?? We love talking about Papa Bear and our Happy Hens!

Your favorite story about your company or the market?
Up to this point, our favorite part of the market would be coming in on opening day with a tent much larger than was acceptable. Everyone at the market was quick to bust our chops in a loving and playful way - one of Papa Bear’s favorite pastimes. We felt right at home!

What is one surprisingly awesome way to use your product?
One surprisingly awesome way to use our product is to wash and soften your hands with a freshly cracked egg – totally kidding. Although the possibilities are endless when it comes to such happy chicken eggs, so we look forward to hearing about any new angles we haven’t purposed our eggs for!

Do you have any recommended recipes or ways to use your products?
Alisha makes a mean egg salad – we’d tell you the recipe but then we’d have to… you know… lol. One day we’ll bring some!

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market?
We love the people that come to the market – everyone is quick to introduce themselves and welcome us to their neighborhood. The Market Team and vendors are exceptional people – everyone has a service centered mind, desiring to provide the community with only the best, local products that nourish and add to an already awesome quality of life. We Love it ALL!

What do you wish people knew about your product?  How versatile and healthy it is. Ghee can be used as a spread and as a cooking oil. Ghee is a good fat that should be a part of a healthy eating plan.

What will you be bringing to the market this year?
Scones and Bisconnie

How frequently will you be at the market?
Every other Saturday

How did your company get started?
Like most good stories, this one starts with love. Growing up in a family of seven opinionated, stubborn, loving sisters and two wonderful brothers meant that discussing food was a constant in Hala’s house. Meals were where everyone talked, shared and reached across the table to say “I care”.

For Hala, food nurtures our souls as much as our body.So, when her family needed a way to have a nutritious, flavorful breakfast option, she baked her first scone – straight out of a box. It was exactly what she thought it would be – slightly dry and very uninteresting. Then, the box disappeared.   That’s when the love came in. Hala decided to bake them herself.  After all, she had worked as a professional chef before.

First, it was a classic scone – cranberry orange.  Then, her sisters got a hold of it. And, as always, the sisters had requests.  “Can’t you make an apple caramel?” “No, a chocolate scone that would be great.” “I hate sweet – what about savory scones?”

Let’s just say – when the sisters start, they go on for a while.

Soon, Hala was creating all these different flavors. And stocking her freezer so that anyone could grab and go. Orders came in from friends and family. She was giving them away as gifts. New flavor requests came in. They became a fall-back easy meal any time of the day, not just breakfast.

The scone bug had bitten, hard.

And the obvious question came – why not make it a business?

That’s when Hala started selling at farmer’s markets. She went from one market to six in a year and quickly outgrew being in a shared kitchen. That led to our first store at 6955 McGinnis Ferry Rd, Johns Creek, GA.

So, make sure to swing by the store, a farmers market or order online. We hope that you will take the time to enjoy scones like the sisters do – sitting together with a hot cup of coffee, out on the deck, talking about life.

Give us a try – you won’t regret it.

What do you wish people knew about your product?

That they are moist and come in dozens of flavors.

What question do you never get sick of customers asking?

Are there really seven sisters? Yes, there are!

Your favorite story about your company or the market?

Those four days we made over 25,000 scones. See video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=11&v=zb5PFN6oLa4

What is one surprisingly awesome way to use your product?

As a breakfast sandwich. Take a savory scone, cut it in half and heat it up. Layer some eggs, cheese and bacon or breakfast sausage. Top and enjoy!

Do you have any recommended recipes or ways to use your products?

You can use the sweet ones as dessert – layer the triple chocolate with vanilla ice cream, chocolate fudge and whipped cream.

Savory ones – sandwiches – put in your favorite deli meat, aioli, veggies and cheese.

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market?

How close of a community it is!

Your favorite story about your company or the market?  Strippaggio is unique compared to other olive oil and vinegar concepts in the market.  We work closely with the producers of our products, know their farming and milling practices and try to source local first before moving beyond local.
 
Do you have any recommended recipes or surprisingly awesome ways to use your products?  Yes, many recipes can be found on the Strippaggio blog on my web site.
 
What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market? I love the intimacy of the market.  It isn’t as large as some area farmers markets which can be overwhelming.  I like the neighborhood feel and the friendliness of the attendees as well as the vendors.

What will you be bringing to the market this year? We will be bringing fresh shrimp and pre-ordered fresh fish. We are licensed by the department of agriculture.

How did your company get started? Our company started by me (Tom Craton) bringing shrimp back from the coast when my wife and I moved to the suburban Savannah area in 2010. We own a home in Big Canoe and found a demand for fresh seafood here.

What do you wish people knew about your product? I wish that people would realize that there is so much “bad” seafood raised in ponds in foreign countries and that our seafood is so much healthier.

What question do you never get sick of customers asking? I never get tired of people asking for recipes. I have hundreds of recipes posted on my website submitted by customers.

Your favorite story about your company or the market? We’ve had our company a little over 4 years. A lot of my customers had to be convinced that it was worth paying $20/lb for fresh fish and then had to learn how to cook it. Now these customers are advising new people about our products and how to cook it.

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market? Brookhaven is our kind of market. An affluent area occupied by people who are highly educated and fellow vendors offering quality products. Our products are not cheap. We are a high end seafood supplier.

Your favorite story about your company or the market?  Veda Juice loves being a part of the Atlanta neighborhood.  We pride ourselves in being like a family and love to make our customers happy and smile.

What will you be bringing to market this year?
This is my neighborhood. I've been waiting for an opportunity to be part of BFM. Last March I was fortunate to meet Amy, who has helped me join the market.

How did your company get started?
We started 20 years ago, opening Zocalo Restaurant in Midtown. Six years ago I decided to join the farmers market movement by selling some of the restaurant products, which are fresh, all natural, and no preservatives.

What do you wish people knew about your product?
Our salsas go well beyond chips. They can be used as "Flavor Enhancers" of any meal.

What question do you never get sick of customers asking?
When they ask about any preservative content and I proudly reply "No."

Your favorite story about your company or the market?
When people realized salsas can be used on any meal, including fish, meats, salads, pizzas, etc. That was my mission when I started and I truly believe I have accomplished that.

Do you have any recommended recipes or surprisingly awesome ways to use your products?
Fish, Salad, Steak, Chicken, Pizza, Hot Dogs, and Pastas

What do you love about the Brookhaven Farmers Market?
Its my neighborhood, I love it, and I'm happy to have a market like BFM and be part of it.
