REMINDER -- Still time to get your order in by 10pm


You still have time to get your order. Market closes at 10pm tonight.

Our Stones River Locally Grown Online Farmers Market is the easiest location to find gifts, produce, baked goods, plants, Herbs, soaps, meats and essentials, with the Spring and Summer Season starting few of our Growers attended the weekly markets during the summer months but still have their items available for those that don’t want to fight the growds or find a parking space. If you are looking for something special find their listing in the Growers Section and send them an email.

Quarter Spring Farm: back with Chicken and Lamb and of course stay clean with their Goat Soaps.

Pinky’s Micros: Microgreens pack 40x more vital nutrients than their mature counterparts. Extremely dense in vital enzymes, minerals, vitamins, omega, and high does of chlorophyll. There aren’t many foods you could eat that are that packed of nutrients and harvested a day before delivery for freshness.
Put them on your sandwiches, top your salads, or use them in place of lettuce.

We love putting them on avocado toast or in a B.L.T Sandwich!

Our new SUMMER Seasonal Chef’s Blend: CANTALOUPE, CUCUMBER, THAI BASIL, RED AMARANTH.

Every season we’ll be creating new blends to represent each season. Along with what we grow all the time.
Peas Shoots, Rose Radish, Broccoli, Basic Salad Mix, and Sunflower Shoots.

C&M Valley Farm: Hope you are having a wonderful planting season! Yes, speaking in the present. Many think it’s over and they can only hope for and reap from the last of their spring efforts at this point. But…..NO! There are so many adventures yet to embark on such as tucking our newly available angelwing and dragonwing begonias, or opting for your own unique culinary acquirements which will take you and your family to new levels of taste such as our scented geraniums . We also have available herbs known to contain medicinal properties for alternative health support and options. Check out our spicy herbs which are great for last minute potting up. They are great for making your own delicious vinegars to splash over fresh salad, or last minute sauces and gravies for meats and veggies which will definitely bring your taste buds to attention.
Planting and planning is still in progress for those who have an apartment, a balcony, a patio, a yard, or any space-simple or complex. Tis’ still the season…so Enjoy!

Yentz Family Farm: We are a small family owned farmed based in Shelbyville, TN. Our mission is to provide fresh local produce and goods to serve our local communities while improving our footprint on the earth.
