Main Street market may open bimonthly through September
The Tennessean• July 2, 2008
SPRING HILL — A few shopkeepers hope some fresh produce will lure some fresh faces downtown.
Owners at Utopia Coffee and sign shop What's Your Sign are looking for area farmers to help them start Hardin Alley Farmers Market in their parking lot on Main Street.
"We have a prime spot for something like this," said Utopia Coffee's Christine Leininger, who is teaming with April Caldwell. "And with gas prices, people wouldn't have to drive to Franklin or Columbia to go to the farmers markets there."
The two business owners have applied for a city business permit for the market and are trying to line up additional parking, per a request from city officials.
They've already talked to some farmers and are looking for others who will want to participate. Leininger said it's something they'd like to offer twice monthly through September.
"I'm excited about it," she said. "And hopefully it will add something to Spring Hill and generate more shopping in the downtown (area)."
