Here’s a quick peek at how the sausage gets made.
We made sausage and peppers fresh today for the hot sandwich. On Wednesdays and Fridays, you can get it hot to take with you, or chilled for later (3 links with sauce, peppers, and onions).
We get the sausage from @frankiessausage, right here in Sharpsburg.

Mid-April already? Summer’s not far off!
We’ve started putting out some summer pieces - lighter clothes, a few good dresses, swimwear, and everyday staples. Here are some of our favorite finds from the past week.
Come by when you’ve got a minute and see what’s there.

We’re planting a flag.
Harvest on Main is now an approved SNAP retailer, and EBT is accepted here.
This has always been part of our vision — a market that’s truly for everyone.
This moment is one more way we’re bringing that vision to life every day 🌾
Fresh produce is here in Sharpsburg - including bananas.
Our shelves are stocked with the kind of food people actually use - fruits and vegetables, meats, pantry basics, local staples and some sweets.
If you’re nearby, come take a look & say hi!
