Sustainable practices
At Hand Pickings Merchant Mall & Farmers Market LLC, located in Walnut Ridge, Arkansas, we are committed to promoting sustainable practices and supporting our local community. Our vendors are carefully selected to ensure they meet our high standards of quality and integrity.
Helping the community initiatives
At Hand Pickings, we envision extending our community support beyond artisans and farmers. We are planning to team up with local veterinarians to provide low-cost spay and neuter vouchers for pets, making essential veterinary care more accessible and promoting responsible pet ownership. We're also committed to donating a percentage of our profits to the local animal shelter to aid in the care and rehabilitation of animals in need. Our goal is to eventually host monthly adoption events, to find someone offering a loving environment for these animals to find their forever homes. This dream will come to fruition once we achieve certain startup goals and establish financial stability, ensuring that our commitment to community welfare remains steadfast and impactful.

Sustainability goals
Our goals for Hand Pickings regarding sustainability in the next year or two are continuously evolving as we grow. We aim to further integrate sustainable practices into our daily operations and expand our support for local, eco-conscious vendors. We hope to eventually start a free community garden where the community comes together to grow, care for and benefit from the harvesting. This will help put food on tables of everyone for little cost and just a bit of community effort.
