About Us
We Believe Local Food Should Be Easy to Find—and Easy to Sell.
Butter & Sage Market connects the people who make amazing local food with the neighbors who’ve been looking for them. The baker two streets over. The gardener with more tomatoes than she knows what to do with. The small farm that doesn’t have a website but makes the best eggs you’ve ever tasted.
Our Mission
The Food Chain Is Broken. We're Helping Fix It.
We started Butter & Sage Market because the food chain is broken — and we think local food businesses are exactly the ones who can help fix it.
Fresh ingredients from your neighbors' kitchens and gardens shouldn't be hard to find. A home baker or a small farm shouldn't need a marketing degree and a web developer just to sell what they make. And the money people spend on food should stay in the community it came from.
That's why we built this. We give small and cottage food vendors the platform, the tools, and the partnership they need to reach local customers — so fresh, local, and sustainable isn't just a nice idea. It's your Tuesday grocery run.
We give local food makers the tools and the audience they need — and we give local shoppers the one place to find them. Because fresh, local, and sustainable shouldn’t be hard. It should be your Tuesday grocery run.
Supporting Local Economy
Every dollar spent on Butter & Sage Market stays in your community. Less food miles. Less waste. More of your money in the hands of the people who grew, baked, or made what you’re eating.
Helping Small Businesses Break Through
You didn’t start your food business to become a web developer. We handle the marketing, the storefront, and the discovery — so you can stay in your kitchen, your garden, or your farm.
Building Healthier Communities
We strongly believe that our food chains need to be fixed! We're investing in your success - because that means others will join and create more local food options for us all.

Meet the Founder
Hi, I’m Amy! I’ve spent 25+ years as a marketing exec and business leader in corporate America—but let’s be honest, that’s the snooze-worthy stuff. The fun stuff? I’m a wife, mom, grandma, and proud dog-mom to two spoiled furballs.
A health scare 10 years ago opened my eyes to how powerful food really is. I was told, “Cook more at home—you’ll do better.” Cutting seed oils, processed junk, and artificial everything changed the game for me and my family.
Fresh food & veggies straight from the garden is better than anything you can find in stores or restaurants, but let’s be real: keeping up with healthy cooking, sourcing good ingredients, and gardening takes time most of us don’t have.
The food chain is broken. I want to help fix it. Supporting local food makers and growers isn’t just good for our plates, it’s good for our communities, local economies and the planet. Small businesses, farms, and neighborhood gardeners are the backbone of a better food chain. I’m passionate about helping them thrive. Local, sustainable, and made with care—that’s the kind of food I want to champion.
So I'm putting my decades of marketing and technical experience to work for you. I want to be your partner to help build stronger food chains and support small business growth. I hope you'll join me!
