St. Joseph Center Farm Store Coming Soon to Breckenridge Village

st-joseph-center-of-arkansasBreckenridge Village continues to grow as a neighborhood destination for food, shopping, and community connection. We are excited to share that St. Joseph Center of Arkansas has announced plans to open a new Farm Store at Breckenridge Village later this year.

The new Farm Store will share a building with The Root Cafe, creating a natural fit for a center that is quickly becoming a hub for locally focused food and community gathering. According to St. Joseph Center, the store will feature locally grown produce, value-added products, and Arkansas-made goods similar to what customers loved at its original farm store.

This announcement comes alongside the successful launch of the West Little Rock Farmers Market, which is held at Breckenridge Village on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to noon. St. Joseph Center noted that close to 2,000 people attended the market on April 18, a strong sign of the community’s interest in supporting local farmers, makers, and food producers.

For Breckenridge Village, the addition of the Farm Store is another meaningful step in the center’s continued revitalization. The goal has always been to create more than a shopping center. Breckenridge is becoming a place where people can meet friends for a meal, shop local, enjoy events, and feel connected to the community around them.

We are proud to welcome St. Joseph Center of Arkansas to Breckenridge Village and look forward to seeing the Farm Store become part of the center’s growing local food scene.

RESCHEDULED!! Community Engagement Meeting: Little Rock I-30 Deck Park Planning Study (February 09, 2026)

Little Rock Community Engagement Meeting #1

Update: The Community Engagement Meeting originally scheduled for late January has been rescheduled to Monday, February 9, 2026, from 4:30–6:30 p.m. at CALS Main Library (Darragh Center – 5th Floor), 100 Rock Street, Little Rock, AR.

Big community projects work best when the community is involved early, and this is a great opportunity to be part of the conversation.

The City of Little Rock is leading the I-30 Deck Park Planning Study, which is exploring the feasibility and early concepts for a deck park spanning across I-30 between 6th Street and 9th Street. A deck park is an urban green space built on a structural deck over a roadway, designed to help reconnect areas divided by a highway while creating new public space.

Hank Kelley is serving on the project’s Community Advisory Board (CAB), and he encourages anyone who cares about Downtown Little Rock, connectivity, and smart long-term planning to attend and share input.
