Today we had the honor of welcoming the Kansas State University Blueprints for Rural Grocery group to Ellis Farm Store in Belle Plaine.

We were blessed to host visitors from across the country who are learning about rural grocery stores, small-town businesses, and the important role they play in their communities.

It was an incredible opportunity to share our story, showcase local growers, local meats, local products, and the many wonderful people who help make rural communities thrive.

Thank you for taking the time to visit Belle Plaine and Ellis Farm Store. We truly appreciate the opportunity to be part of the conversation about the future of rural grocery.

A special thank you to everyone who stopped, asked questions, sampled products, and supported our store today. We are proud to represent Belle Plaine, Kansas, and proud to be part of a community that continues to support local businesses.

Days like today remind me that small towns matter. ❤️

We are going to be a part of this next month..stay tuned for more updates coming soon!!

🌴☀️ Well, the cat's out of the bag! ☀️🌴

At our May and June Chamber meetings, we began putting plans into motion for July's Third Saturday event, and word has started making its way around town.

We're excited to officially share that the theme for July's Third Saturday will be Passport to Paradise! 🌺🏝️🍍

The Belle Plaine Chamber of Commerce is proud to be working alongside our local businesses to create a fun, community-wide experience throughout town. Participating businesses will be putting their own unique spin on the theme with special activities, promotions, treats, and surprises throughout the day.

One of the things that makes Belle Plaine special is when our businesses work together to create something bigger than any one of us could do alone. We're grateful for every business, organization, and community member who helps make Third Saturday a success.

🗓️ Saturday, July 18
📍 Belle Plaine

Stay tuned as more details are announced over the coming weeks. We can't wait to share what we have planned for our small town!

🌸 Grateful. Truly Grateful. 🌸

Today, a sweet lady stopped by and handed me this beautiful bouquet of flowers. No reason other than kindness.

Running a small-town grocery store comes with its fair share of busy days, challenges, and unexpected moments, but it also comes with something even greater — the love, support, and generosity of this community.

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you. Thank you for supporting local. Thank you for your encouragement. Thank you for your friendships. And thank you for the many blessings that come in ways both big and small.

Belle Plaine, you continue to remind me every day why I love being here.

💜 Michelle

Well friends… Ellis Farm Store is CLOSED today. 🥵

The store has officially reached “nope, absolutely not” temperatures, and until the AC gets fixed, we’re going to close up for everyone’s safety and comfort.

We’re sorry for the inconvenience and truly appreciate your understanding.

We plan to reopen tomorrow at 11:00 AM once the AC is fixed and the store is back to feeling like a store instead of a greenhouse. 😂

Thank you for supporting our small-town store. ❤️

Sometimes the best things show up when you least expect them. ❤️

One of the things we love most about Ellis Farm Store is that you never quite know what treasure might walk through the door next.

This week, we’re excited to have a Certified Louis Vuitton available in store, along with beautiful boutique purses, unique finds, and one-of-a-kind pieces looking for their next home.

Whether you’re searching for something timeless, something fun, or simply love the thrill of discovering something unexpected, it might be worth stopping by and taking a look.

After all, the best treasures aren’t always the ones you planned to find. ✨
