2015 Member News
First, thank you again for
being a member! We have 220 members so
far! Those of you who have purchased $50
memberships and lifetime memberships are providing an important operating
cushion for the store…and earning it back each time you shop. Thank
You!
BSM three months in:
How is it going?
We are pleased to report that
Boone Street Market sales have been stronger than the original estimates we
made before the store opened. Average
sales for our first three months are $24,000/month. This means we have already helped local
producers earn $60,000, and between the farmers market and the store, we can conceivably
add $500,000 to the local economy this year! While the store will not break
even on operating expenses until our sales are about $35,000/month, we are off
to a very good start, and we hope to hit that target with the addition of the
kitchen and during the produce-filled summer months on the horizon.
Thanks
to everyone who has shopped at the store, please keep coming back!
Member special promotion: 10% off on Saturday, Feb 7th
Come to Boone Street Market
for lunch! We will celebrate the grand
opening of our kitchen this Saturday.
10% discount for members on any purchase from the kitchen or from the
store!
Hours Change: 9
am-6 pm Weekdays, 10-5 Saturdays
For the remainder of the
winter, we are going to open and close a little earlier. This is in response to customer traffic
patterns--we anticipate extending hours to 7 pm in the spring.
Online ordering update
Our original vision was to
offer online ordering from store inventory for our members. This has proven far more complicated than we
anticipated. Our ETSU computing advisors
have suggested there is simply no feasible way to do what we want at this time. For that, we apologize! But we’re not giving up…..read on:
We want you to have some
shopping perks—we’ll just have to do it another way. Please
pick up the phone and call anytime during store hours (753-4722). Matt or Veronica or the volunteer cashier on
duty will be happy to answer questions about a product you are looking for, and
we’ll set it aside for you to come and pick up.
Please feel free to use this good old fashioned personalized service any
time! We mean it!
Volunteer opportunity for drivers
Volunteers are needed for
all-day drives to the Asheville
Kitchen needs:
If anyone has extras, we
could still use these items to equip our kitchen: plates and bowls, drinking glasses (not mugs), colanders/mesh
strainers, storage containers, and a grater.

Many have asked about the
farmers market, and the answer is Yes!
the Saturday Jonesborough Farmers Market will be back in its East Courthouse Square
