Happy National Small Business Week!

Small businesses are the backbone of our communities—driving innovation, creating local jobs, and keeping our towns vibrant and unique.

When you shop at Farmers in the Park or Charlottesville City Market, you’re doing more than picking up fresh produce. You’re supporting the families, growers, makers, and entrepreneurs who keep our local economy strong. Every purchase truly makes a difference.

This week (and every week!), we celebrate the hardworking small business owners who bring their passion and craft to our market. Thank you for choosing local and helping our community thrive!

Shop small. Shop local. Support your neighbors.
