Last Week of Online Marketplace - Order by Wednesday!
Dear Growing Together customers,
Thank you for your immense support this year as we pivoted our market to this online platform. Your purchases have made this change in our program possible, and we are so grateful for your support.
Alongside this shift from an in-person farmers market to our online marketplace, covid-19 has also pushed our program to adjust to increased need in our community for high-quality, locally grown vegetables. In the spring, we piloted a program led by Growing Together’s Burmese interpreter and community leader, Lu Lu Nhkum, to share Growing Together vegetables for free with members of the Burmese community impacted by covid-19. This program was so successful, that we are transitioning our fall outlets to expand this program with the Burmese community as well as start a new partnership with Trap Garden, a nonprofit organization who’s mission is to help build, sustain, and empower low-income communities by assisting in the creation of community gardens and the promotion of healthy eating. These new initiatives are clear steps forward towards The Nashville Food Project’s vision of community food security, and we are excited about the ways that the Growing Together farmers can be paid for their work in support of this.
Because of these changes, this will be our last week of the online marketplace. Saturday, August 8th is the last pick up day. We have so many summer vegetables on the market, so make sure to get your fill in this week!
Again, thank you so much for your support of the Growing Together farmers over the last several months. Your purchases have supported them with income in a critical time. We will continue our CSA program in the Fall and in 2021, so there will still be ways to get Growing Together produce! The Fall CSA is sold out, but stay tuned for more information about the Spring CSA in the coming months.
With gratitude,
The Growing Together team

Growing Together Veggies for July 13th!
Hello!
We hope you are all getting to enjoy these beautiful, long summer days! Although the heat is now kicking in, it has actually been one of the cooler Junes, and has been great growing weather!
The summer produce is looking great, and we are pleased to offer you a wonderful selection this week. The farmers have plenty of summer stand-bys, like tomatoes and cucumbers, but also some fun new things you may want to try, like roselle leaves and long beans! Roselle leaves have a lemony tang, and can be added to a salad or used as a substitute for sorrel leaves.
We are also offering colorful flower bouquets this week, which are available for pre-order to pick up on Saturday.
Check out all of this and more at our online market (link below).
We are so grateful for your support! As always, please let us know if you have any questions or concerns about any of the produce.
