Main Street Market and Door County’s Door Community Auditorium have a long history. Both Dave and I have served on the Board of Directors, me currently. Both have been Presidents of said BOD – and Main Street Market is a sponsor of several shows a season. Being a show sponsor is cool. You get […]
Some old (ha) Door County friends got married this morning. I got this photo in a text at 11:30 am, along with the message: 40 years together and 40 minutes MARRIED!!!! No matter what you think about civil unions, these guys certainly qualify as legal spouses. They embody everything you would want in a 40 […]
This week our very good friends, Ron Perly and Jerry Spitz, were here. Many of you know them as the owners of Trio Restaurant in Egg Harbor. At the beginning and the end of every season, Ron and Jerry come to our house for dinner. This year was bittersweet; they came to vote, not to […]
I think it is time for a spring dinner in Door County. The snow is almost gone, the days are getting longer, daffodils are peeking out – yep – Spring! One of the most beautiful vegetables is the combination of fresh asparagus and tomatoes. Toss with some garlic, olive oil and roast for just a […]
A Door County wedding! Sam and Melissa were married Saturday, Sept. 27 at Stella Maris Fish Creek. After the ceremony, the entire wedding party stopped at Main Street Market for a “Grand March” through the store! It was indeed a grand march, punctuated by a big old kiss in the center of the produce department! […]
At Main Street Market, we pride ourselves on stocking Door County products. We also sell products that may not be from Door County, but have some connection to Door County. Rush Creek Reserve is a special, limited-release cheese from Uplands Cheese. (We also sell their very excellent Pleasant Ridge Reserve all year!) Andy Hatch is […]
Door County’s Main Street Market in Egg Harbor opened 25 years ago today! I think we were planning to open Sept. 1, but weren’t quite ready; we opened Sept. 2 at 11:00 am. the Wednesday before Labor Day weekend. Gloria and Bob Hastings were one of our first customers, Bob was the president of the […]
I love the name of this band! Main Street Market is sponsoring The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Monday night at the Door Community Auditorium in Fish Creek. The show starts at 7:00 and tickets are still available. It should be a great show!
I told you our granddaughter Ivana was living in Door County for 6 weeks this summer; her mother is in Nepal doing an internship and Adam has to work! Ivana stays at my parents’ house most of the time and our house a couple nights a week. Thursday Regan took her to The Red Putter […]
Main Street Market has “first of the season” strawberries – delivered fresh from Malvitz Bay Farms in Sturgeon Bay. Delicious!!! Fresh Door County strawberries, angel food cake and vanilla ice cream – or if you prefer the healthy option – yogurt – summer is definitely here! And early!
When I was a kid, we did not eat a lot of fresh vegetables – I don’t think anybody did unless you lived on a farm! Two vegetables that my parents ate, and I absolutely despised, were canned asparagus and beets. Even the smell made me ill. When we moved to Door County, we discovered […]
Last year on this Sunday, Door County received 15 inches of snow! Steve and I made it to the store about 7:00 am ( We knew it was going to be bad, so I went with him. My little TT wouldn’t have made it out of the garage!) We turned on some lights; we couldn’t […]
