Welcome to Russellville Community Market!

This is the place to connect our community with the local food system. Members have a weekly opportunity to interact with local farmers as a participant in our local farmers market. Members get an inside look at what’s available locally and can get to know their local farmers through buying at the market.

Our community market can help stock your kitchen year-round with healthy, accessible local food. Viable local farming operations are cornerstones of a more sustainable community.

How it works

Unlike other co-ops, buying clubs, or CSAs where everyone gets the same box of stuff (and you don’t know what you’re getting until you get it), with Locally Grown you get to order what you want, in the quantities that you want, from the farms that you want.

• First, sign up for an account by clicking on “Your Account” at the top of the page. Once you have an account you will be notified each Saturday when the market opens and you’ll be able to place your orders until Monday evening.

• Order conveniently from the comfort of your home computer by visiting the market page for the weeks offerings; or if need be by responding directly to the e-mail, or by phone. You will receive an email confirmation of your order.

• Know what you are purchasing with more information about the vendors, their practices and their products on our grower page;

Availability is flexible.

The growers estimate how much of each item that will be able to harvest a week ahead of time. This takes both skill and practice. Even so, unpredictable factors can make the difference between having a bumper crop or a very small harvest. So, the site will allow customers to keep on ordering an item even if sales have passed the estimated availability. Please exercise patience with farmers as the conditions of the field can change between the weekend and harvest time.

Cash or checks are accepted for payment when the order is picked up.

If you place an order but for whatever reason do not arrive to pick it up, you are still responsible for paying for that order.

Ordering is weekly from Sunday at 12pm through Tuesday at 10pm.

After you’ve set up an account, you’ll receive an email notifying you that products are available. Please visit our site and place your orders before 10pm on Tuesday.

You may pick up your order on Thursday between 4pm and 6pm at All Saints Episcopal Church located at 501 S Phoenix Ave in Russellville.

Membership Fees

Customers are charged a 6% surcharge onto each order. 3% of this fee goes directly to pay for the use of the locallygrown.net software program, with the remainder going to cover marketing, advertising, and management of the market. You can think of this charge as a tax on your market purchases that you will directly benefit from.
Growers are also only charged a 6% surcharge on their sales, instead of a flat yearly fee in addition to a surcharge.
