Create Your Wish List (Recurring Grocery List)
One of the features I love is the WISH LIST! You can create a Wish List (even if the market is not open). All you have to do is click "Add to Wish List". This will add items to your list. When the market opens up you can click to add the products to your cart and checkout quickly. This is awesome especially if you tend to purchase the same products every week! It's a big time saver! So try the WISH LIST feature this weekend.
New Ordering Website a SUCCESS!
It was a great first week on the new market website! If you haven't already checked our new website the new address is www.livingwellga.com
If you are currently a member with a paid membership or just recently expired you should have received an email from Living Well Farmers Market with your new username and password. Just use those login credentials and you are good to go on ordering. If you did not receive an email, please go to the new website and register. Choose the 14 day free trial and start ordering.
We hope you love the new website and the enhanced customer experience.
BIG CHANGE- Since I no longer have to physically turn off the market you now have until midnight Sunday to order! I can't tell you how happy I am that the market turns on and off without me doing anything. I love automation! Check out the countdown clock on the homepage - it makes me happy!
You can also send questions (Inquiry) feature directly to the vendors and order from your favorites on Co-op Vendor Stores on menu. You can give reviews on the products and so much more. I'm still working on getting our social media straighten out...I will go into detail on new features you can try every week. Right now I just want you all to get used to logging and ordering on the new website :-)
Pick up is still at Cultured Traditions on Wednesdays but we're getting closer to opening the new store location!
New! 'Ono kine seaweed soap
“Formulated with many gifts from the sea (sea salt, seaweed, sea kelp, and sea clay) in a combination of oils known to be gentle enough for face use. A good dose of laurel berry oil and mango seed butter to make it extra special, charcoal for the added benefits (and nice contrast!). Peppermint tea and spearmint essential oil to remind you to take deep breaths and relax!”
Order at this weekend at:
Azuki's Kitchen on Vacation
Happy Camper is back on the market!!
Guys, I honestly did a little jig when Katie from Happy Camper told me she was coming back on the market! My family and I love her gluten free hand pies. They make such an easy breakfast, snack, or lunch. All pies are gluten free. They have vegan and paleo options!
Just pop it in the toaster or oven for 10-15 minutes and you have a hot, savory, toasty snack or breakfast or lunch!
Currently on the market:
Curry + Cauliflower Hand Pies (2-pack)
______________________________________________________________________________
Fully Stocked Up - Chicken and Beef
You can order these products and Carrell Farm's Water buffalo, Alpaca, Doug's Wild Alaskan Salmon, and Hunter Cattle Pastured Pork. Copperhead Homestead is on vacation.

PLEASE HELP! Volunteers Needed at pick up!
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Since I'm not sure when the new store will open up I went ahead a created Volunteer schedule until end of December. Please click link below if you can help!
Please consider volunteering during market pick up. I can’t run the market without your help! Shifts are 1 hour long and go by really fast. It's a great opportunity to meet and help your fellow members!
Thank you Gwen, Kristen, Chuck, and Kelly for volunteering last Wednesday! We couldn't have the co-op without our amazing volunteers!!
If you are interested in volunteering but unsure exactly what that involves, please let Nora know and she will do a quick "volunteer orientation" with you on a day/time that you pick up.
