Our Story

Welcome, friends…. The Curve Market is our unique and charming indoor/outdoor venue located in the heart of Scott, Arkansas.

The Curve Market was designed to showcase all the bounty of our local area. We offer our loyal customers fresh, seasonal produce from our neighbors and nearby farmers, honey from just down the road, jams, jellies, salsa, beef, butters, hummus, oils, soaps, candles, t-shirts, and so much more. We offer our private label ready-to-eat appetizers, soups, snacks and meals in our cooler and in our freezer, “Fork in the Road.” Our passion is to support the local community and gather people together to celebrate all the produce and products lovingly and uniquely made by our carefully selected vendors.

In 2022, God provided a “match made in Heaven” — The Curve Market and Scott Station Restaurant came under the umbrella of Beau and Martha Ellen Talbot’s collection of passions and properties, Marlsgate Plantation, LLC.

Scott Station Restaurant, formerly Seaton’s Scott Place, is next door to The Curve Market.

At the start of 2022, our fresh creation for our community was the expansion of our grounds into The Curve Market Garden Center, where we stock large landscape plants, natural Arkansas stone, potting soil, mulch and a new greenhouse. Our partnership with the Scott Charter School will teach the students how to grow desirable herbs and vegetables, how to sell them to The Curve Market, and will provide them with a place to learn and earn money by working in both The Curve Market and Scott Station Restaurant.

We made more changes before the close of 2022 Our dream of creating a year-round Market is in place, as we have added a metal roof and windows and walls, along with air conditioning and heating in half the building. We laid stone floors throughout the Market…. And we will showcase our new gifts, Arkansas-Made products, art and clothing in collectible antique armoires, sideboards, pie-safes and secretaries…. Our fresh produce is now in open misting coolers, and is jumping for joy!

2023 will find our footprint “growing” again. We are building The Scott Shoppes on the ground next to The Curve Market, and three Front-Porch Shoppes will be open in late Spring 2023….

Come see us. Eat with us, visit with us, and join in all the fun. We would love to share each of our properties, and our plans and dreams, with you….

Roots. Food. Family. Faith.

We invite you to visit The Curve Market, where a friendly face is sure to greet you at the door. We promise you will leave with quality, local products and the best memories…. Come see us, soon and often.
