The Central Saturday Community Market!

American Beauty Garden Center Community Market

We are looking for more local people that would like to take part in our upcoming weekend outdoor market.

It is held front of our store on Saturdays 3pm until 8pm.

Current vendors/participants:

  • Rosemary Pete - Produce, plants & spice blends
  • Miguel - Low-Cost Self watering plant systems
  • Quench! Essentials - Soaps, Candles, aromatherapy
  • The Secret Chocolatier - Chocolate treats of all kinds

The only "requirement" that we have is that it is locally crafted or grown! Anyone is welcome. Bring out your extra garden crops, your crafts, or any home-made items. Basically, it is going to be a place to 'share your wares'. We would like to help all of our customers and their friends and family to share their trades, and use our front parking-lot as a free place to get together and either sell, or barter goods to make use of the many talents that we have found in our community.

Bring your own chairs, and shade, and we will provide the space.
We are looking forward to seeing what your gardens and hobbies bring to share!

Contact us to setup space for yourself on the list by calling us at 704-334-8651.

Thanks for supporting green gardening and all of our community!
