What Our Community Says

{

Our fresh salsa is a hit at pop-ups, but we needed a way for people to order anytime. Butter & Sage Market gave us that—and brought in customers we never would’ve reached on our own. It’s like having a digital farmers market!

I used to just post my sourdough loaves on Instagram and hope someone messaged me. Now I have a real storefront. Butter & Sage helped me turn my hobby into a business that supports my family.

Starting my spice blend business felt overwhelming—until I found Butter & Sage. The setup was simple, the resources were helpful, and I felt like I finally had a place to grow without all the noise.

I spend most of my time baking and decorating, so website building was out of the question. Butter & Sage Market gave me a beautiful storefront in minutes—and my customers love the convenience.

We were selling at our farmers market, but wanted to expand without opening a storefront. Butter & Sage gave us an easy online home where local customers can pre-order for pickup or delivery. Total game-changer!
