This market has been cancelled.
The Spa City Co-op market has been cancelled this cycle due to lack or orders. We must have at least 10 to make it worth it to the growers and volunteers to spend their time and energy.
If you want the option to have the co-op market available, you must support it with your orders. Otherwise, it will cease to exist.
The next market cycle will open on Saturday, December 14th, at 9 am.

Food for thought
Dear Spa City Co-op Members,
Lest we forget that in modern times, our food system is complex and often wasteful. Here’s an article that addresses that issue:
https://www.mnn.com/earth-matters/energy/stories/look-path-your-food-takes-get-your-plate?utm_source=Weekly+Newsletter&utm_campaign=a87d5b468a-RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_FRI1108_2019&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_fcbff2e256-a87d5b468a-40275741
Remember that local farmer’s markets, like SCC and the market downtown bring fresh food and help make the supply of food more secure. We help sustain the farmers of Arkansas every time we order or buy from them, and they in turn are there for us.
The Spa City Co-op market opens this Saturday at 9 am. This will be the last market before Thanksgiving.
