Market Details
Impact With Every Purchase
The Ethos Market, formerly known as The Good Makers Market, continues to support and elevate the efforts of social entrepreneurs. These companies and nonprofits not only make high quality products, they also have a social impact. Whether its giving back, sourcing ethically made materials, conserving the environment, paying a living wage, providing workforce development, or other socially impactful endeavors, the vendors at The Ethos Market operate on a triple bottom line, meaning they focus as much on making a social or environmental impact as they do on profits.

Second Harvest Food Bank’s mission is to nourish and empower people so they can thrive. We take in donated surplus food from grocery stores, farmers, and others, diverting the supply from landfills to instead empower our neighbors. Bring some of our most needed items to donate at the Ethos Market:
Peanut Butter
Canned meat (chicken or tuna)
Canned fruit & veggies
Soups & stews
Pasta
Cereal
Our glass recycling service keeps glass out of our area landfills, while also employing some of our city’s most marginalized people. Better yet, all of the glass recycled through Just.Glass is processed in Ashland City, and then purchased for reuse by companies in Colombia, TN. Everything stays right here in Middle Tennessee, making a huge impact in our community.
We collect your leftovers and turn them into nutrient-rich compost for Tennessee farms and community gardens. You make a difference; we handle the dirty work. We have composted over 13,176,747 pounds diverted and counting!
Parking
There are open lots surrounding the even space that are shared with Thistle Farms and the Cafe. There is also a lot of street parking.
There will be lots of directional signs posted, so keep an eye out!
