The CORE Community Market is a place for local businesses to sell, test ideas, and connect directly with customers.

We’re working to make this a more consistent, accessible sales channel for entrepreneurs at any stage. Whether you’re making your first sale or growing an existing business, the goal is simple: show up, learn what works, and move forward.

You define what success looks like. The market helps you get there.
