2026 Love Local: Meet your Farmers

Come together with neighbors and friends to celebrate the hands that feed us! You are invited to an inspiring evening showcasing the power and importance of local food, community resilience, and the dedicated farmers who nourish our region.

We visited three local farms who consistently stock the shelves of Sweet Beet Market to give you an exclusive, behind the scenes look at how farmers build vital connections with the land and our communities through growing food. Join us in person for the exclusive premiere of a short film documenting our visits that takes a deep dive into Community Supported Agriculture beyond the CSA box, discovering how we can build a stronger, more equitable and sustainable local food system together.
