Online Market is Open!


www.siloamsprings.locallygrown.net


We had a very successful opening week for the Winter Market! Thank you to all who placed an order and found us at our new pick up location.

If you have unused Double Dollar script remember you can use it towards orders through the online market. If you know someone who has any left please remind them they can still use it.

Enjoy perusing the items available this week. It’s time to begin planning your Thanksgiving meal! Hard to believe the year is almost over.

Have a blessed week!

Just Added a New Vendor!!!


If you came by the market you may have met Sarah Martin, owner of Roca Baby! Candy Company. Sarah has decided to join our online market this winter and should have her products listed and ready to order this week!

We are excited to have her on board.

Winter Market Officially Opens Today!


We ended the open air market season with the most beautiful, sunny, warm weather I’ve ever recalled experiencing in October. A group of us went to 28 Springs for lunch afterwards and we all commented about how we had the best weather for the open air market this season. All are thankful for new vendors, old and new customers and support from 28 Springs, Inn at the Springs, Fratelli’s Pizza and Cafe on Broadway.

We are truly excited about entering into our 2nd season with the online market. Being able to bring fresh produce, pastured meats, farm fresh eggs, baked goods, crafts and live plants to our community throughout the fall and winter months is amazing! We have great people working hard to bring locally grown, locally made items to you!

Those participating this season are:

Create 4 Good – Melissa Null

East Side Acres – Astrid Soto

Greener Pastures Products – Mica Parks

J.D. Hudson Farms – Jerry Hudson

Opossum Hollow Produce – Thomas Fairbanks

Patty’s Pantry – Patty Gambill

Perennial Gardens – Shelly Koski

R Family Farm – Roger and Jennifer Remington

Skopp Bakery – Rikki Skopp and family

Susi’s Kitchen – Susi Gilbert

The Bread Basket – Brenda Welch

You can still place an order online Sunday through Wednesday at 5 p.m. Pick up will be on Saturday morning, 9 to 11:00 a.m. at the Main Street Siloam Springs office, located at 103 E Alpine St, Ste 2, Siloam Springs, AR. The parking lot is not available for parking – please park on the street. Market management feels there should be plenty of street parking at that time of morning. If you require assistance carrying your purchase to the car we will most definitely help you.

When you click the market tab it will open up the market with all products listed in alphabetical order. However, on the left side is a category listing and you can click on the categories you would like to shop in and some categories will have sub-categories as well. For example, Bath and Beauty is where all the handmade soaps, lotions, laundry soaps, etc. are listed. Clicking Processed Foods will open up the listing of jams and jellies and categories of other products that we hope someday to be able to find a vendor that is permitted to make those foods.

There are 12 different types of produce listed, 10 herbs, honey, a wide variety of pastured beef, pork, poultry and sometimes goat meat, tasty baked goods, wonderful homemade jams and jellies and handmade crafts, soaps, and personal care products.

We look forward to seeing everyone through the winter! Remember, don’t hesitate to ask one of our farmers, bakers, crafters about something you would like to see sold or if you have a special request. You can access their email address by clicking the Our Growers tab. They welcome your ideas and requests.

See you Saturday morning!
