Sweet Beet 2025 Wrapped
What a year 2025 was! Take a look at our year in review with Sweet Beet’s 2025 Wrapped!
THANK YOU for being a part of this community with us. Thank you for shopping local, supporting hundreds of local and regional farmers and food producers.
Because of everyone, like you, who shopped local in 2025, we are collectively having an IMPACT and supporting our neighbors.
These numbers matter!!!! They are fun to look back on, but they are also super important indicators of how supportive we are of our local food economy, and even the health of our planet.
Eat and Share Good Local Food This Thanksgiving
Keep your dollars here in our local economy, and nourish not only your family this holiday season but our shared community as well!
Did you know that when you pre-order your Thanksgiving turkey, ham, sides or full meals, there is also an option where you can donate to a neighbor who may be in need this year?
Sweet Beet Cafe temporarily closed for post-fire reconstruction
As many have heard, there was a fire at 11 West Main st, home of Sweet Beet, on Tuesday, February 18th.
Fortunately, no one was hurt and the fire was contained. We extend our gratitude to Sweet Beet staff members Cassie and Micayla for noticing the fire and taking quick action, the first responders, and Bradford, Henniker, Warner, and New London fire departments for their efficient work in stopping the spread of the fire.
Sweet Beet Café will unfortunately be closed as we undergo significant repairs, but some goodies will still be available thanks to beautiful community support!

Community Care through Food Security and Access!
This past summer the Kearsarge Food Hub put out some feelers in the community for a donation of a refrigerator. We wanted to experiment with having a community fridge on the porch here at the Sweet Beet, to stock with fresh local foods for neighbors to access any time.
