attention vendors!


The door at Emergent Arts was damaged and may not be repaired by Thursday. I’ll try to send an update ASAP. But you may want to call Erin at 501 655 0836 to see about having one of the doors open when you want to deliver.

Java meat at market this week


Remember – Spa City on-line market will open again tomorrow morning (Saturday) at 9:00 a.m. with peak-summer locally grown goodies.

Jay and Valerie at JV Farm want us to know that they have gotten stocked back up on pork and now have goat along with some lamb. They will have chicken again in September.

Last market for Meatworks


We are sorry to say that Meatworks will be closing down. This next market, opening on Saturday at 9 a.m., will be the last time you will be able to order from Meatworks, so you may want to stock up.

We have been fortunate to be able to offer the quality, naturally raised beef, pork, chicken and lamb from our local farmers, and we are sorry to see Meatworks go.

We do have a new vendor, Eden’s Memory, a small family farm specializing in pastured poultry grown using nonGMO feed. Wendy and Kerry also have a variety of heirloom vegetables, goat’s milk, and whole grain artisan breads.

recycle plastic bags


I’m asking everyone to bring in their used plastic shopping bags so we can reuse and/or recycle them. Just bring them with you to the market and I’ll take it from there. Thanks for your help, Karen S.
