✨🌻 For our Monday Maker’s Spotlight we’re shouting out Sharon Nickell the owner of Sharon’s Table and who you may have seen at the Market, always with a smile and telling everyone about all our amazing vendors and their products.
We asked Sharon a few questions so y’all can learn more about her and her small business 💛
1. Tell us who you are and what Sharon’s Table brings to our community.
✨Sharon’s Table is built on small-town values. I use fresh local sourced ingredients, homemade recipes that is passed down not wrote down, I love teaming up and partnering with other local entrepreneurs, I try to always give honest & friendly service.
💛I bring a lifetime of cooking for family, friends, and my community. I bring creativity that turns everyday meals into something special. I bring consistency, quality, and pride in every salad, wrap, soup, pasta, and side I prepare.
2. What inspired you to start making fresh, homemade meals?
✨I’ve always believed that food is one of the simplest and most meaningful ways to care for someone. A homemade meal brings comfort, creates memories, and brings people together around the table.
💛That passion became the foundation of Sharon’s Table. I wanted to offer fresh, homemade meals that people could enjoy even on their busiest days without sacrificing quality. Every salad, wrap, soup, side, and pasta dish is made with the same care and attention I’d give if I were cooking for my own family.
✨For me it’s simple, everyone deserves real whole food.
3. How do you choose the fresh ingredients that go into your dishes?
✨Every ingredient I use at Sharon’s Table is chosen with one goal in mind: serving food I’d be proud to put on my own family’s table.
🌻I start with freshness. Whenever possible, I use locally grown produce, farm-fresh eggs, and quality meats because I believe fresh ingredients create the best flavor. I enjoy partnering with local farmers and makers, supporting the community while bringing customers the highest-quality products available.
4. What do you love most about bringing people together through fresh homemade food?
💛 I love knowing that something I prepared can become part of someone’s celebration, comfort them during a difficult time, or simply make their day a little brighter. That’s the heart behind Sharon’s Table.
