The Little Tart Bakeshop is a French-inspired pastry shop founded in Grant Park by Pastry Chef Sarah O'Brien
 "On my tenth birthday, my grandmother Sophie gave me a rolling pin and taught me how to make her famous apple pie, with apples from the orchard up the road. I have been baking ever since. I earned my chops working as an intern in two Parisian bakeries and I hope to bring my own little bit of Paris to Atlanta, my adopted and much-loved city, through The Little Tart.
We believe in making everything from scratch, by hand, with the finest ingredients we can find – much of which we source from local farmers, cheese mongers, butchers, and jam makers. We hope to show through our work that eating sustainably also means eating heathfully, affordably, and most importantly, deliciously."
 
The Little Tart creations are as delicious as appealing they look. Find a sweet or salty treat to eat during market and now you can order their delicious holiday season pies! See the menu here and order before they get booked!
Please join us in celebrating this special farmers market community with a Giving Thanks potluck dinner. For the last market before Thanksgiving, we will close down at 6:00pm and share a family-style meal together. Normal Market from 4-6!
