Business Spotlight: TJ Country Market, Gatherings On The Blue


Occasionally, during slow news cycles, we like to feature area businesses.  Today, we shine the spotlight on two local establishments -- both just outside village limits.
 
TJ Country Market, owned and operated by Tim and Jean Springer, is fairly new on the small business scene.  Located five minutes north of Dorchester on Hwy 6/15, the market has locally grown produce, farm fresh meat and baked goods. 

Our mouths were watering when we saw lineup offered by the Market, especially the melons and cinnamon rolls. 

You can check out TJ Country Market yourself on Saturdays, 9 a.m. until 4 p.m.  

For directions, see this map or call (402) 946-7321 for more details.  Or go to the Market's Facebook page by clicking here or go to TJ Country Market's homepage.

Another area business we're featuring -- one that has been around for several years now -- is Judy Roth's Gatherings on the Blue, which has become quite famous amongst antique collectors for its numerous shed sales held throughout the year. 

The shed sales draw people from miles away, according to an e-mail sent by a reader (Gretta).  The Facebook page for Gatherings had more than 2,100 "likes," which is testament to the following the business has.
 
If it's a relic from the early 1900s or something from your high school days in the 1960s or 70s, it looks like you will find it at Gatherings on the Blue, which happens to be having another sale Friday, Aug. 30 through Labor Day.  
 
The address is 151 County Rd. 280, just north and east of the Blue River Bridge north of Dorchester.   For a map, click here.  Or call (402) 560-5984.
