Champaign, OH:  The Only Market You Will Ever Need!

The market is now open for the week!!

Thank you for always being such dedicated little local market of love customers!!

A huge thanks to Charlene for running the market, alone, tonight, so that Mark and I could work the Empty Bowls event!!

I was honored to be the bread donator for this event, and the love for my products were amazing!! I was honored to be asked to work with this amazing cause! Together, Mark and I took our new business expansion, Hippie and the Farmer, to the event as one of the evening’s soup sponsors!!

Thanks, so much, to all of you who came out, tonight!! It was crazy busy, and as many of you saw, at the last part of the evening, the breads were down to crumbs, and the many gallons of our soup was down to just a bit in the last container.

Your love and dedication to local is why we do what we do…all for you, all for this market, all for keeping the local vibe strong!

Go, order, be happy…
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…
