It’s Jasper’s annual celebration of our local food scene—a four-day event from Wednesday, August 13th through Saturday, August 16th—where restaurants across town create special menus, offer unique dishes, and invite the community to come together over great food.

We are celebrating this week and some of the following weeks as well! Kicking it off this Thursday!

Big news, cheese lovers—our charcuterie boards just got a major upgrade. 🥂 Starting this week, we’re hand-labeling the cheeses and cured meats directly on the board, so you’ll always know exactly what you’re tasting. Today, we are talking all about the cheeses for starters!

At Main Street Market, we’re all about wines with a little backstory—and this week’s pick is no exception. Les Gentilhommes Chardonnay is a crisp, beautifully balanced white that hails from the heart of Burgundy, France—aka the birthplace of great Chardonnay. Learn all about this wine in this blog post!
