this is the best kind of crazy.

We weren’t sure what to expect when we were invited to join the Sparta Green Market. So much of what we’re doing is new to us, and the market is certainly no exception. We knew this… we were humbled and honored beyond measure. The Sparta Green Market started years ago, born of the inspiration to turn around a “food desert” in our community. For so many of us, finding the best local crops and artisan goods is a passionate hunt. But once a month, from May til October, the Sparta Green Market puts together the best of our community in an event that makes it easy -and fun- to see all Sparta has to offer. From local farmer’s crops to artisan goods (and, of course, the very best baked goods), Sparta is becoming an ever-growing abundance of the quality and care in our community. While it may historically be considered a food desert, we’re all in to help change that. In fact, like all the 40+ amazing local vendors, once a month we put endless hours into planning, baking and displaying a crazy amount of effort to prove Sparta can be a food destination. Yes, its one heck of a week for our little bakery. We may not get much sleep (or maybe any), but we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Join us this Friday, July 21st, from 4:00-7:00 pm for an amazing market, grab a beer from Calfkiller or a lemonade from Peyton, then stay for bluegrass music on the Square. Because, well, Sparta does it like no other.
