Upstate Locally Grown Market cuts out the middle man to enable our partners
to literally
pick and pack your order just hours before you pick it up!©
“About 9% of farms account for over 90% of production. Our farms represent the other 10%”
The system is meant to emulate many aspects of a traditional “booths and tables” farmers’ market. The customers are buying directly from the grower, at prices set by the grower. The grower describes what is available, supplies photos of the items, and sets the purchase price.
We Stand behind our Upstate Locally Grown Approved Growers. Get to know more about them by clicking on “view details” Each Grower is personally known by us and is dedicated to sustainable practices.
…“great things in business are never done by one person, they’re done by a team of people.”

It is worth noting here that organic gardening is a black-and-white scenario for any gardener, with no gray areas. If you use any chemical such as Round-up, even just in the cracks of the driveway, then you are not an organic gardener. True organic gardens suffer NO pesticide use whatsoever, and that’s the perfect world we should all aim for: Gardens Ablaze
You may wish to pay your Grower’s Fee here: Please indicate that it is for grower’s fee under the heading “Purpose” on PayPal.
