Buckhead Village is introducing yet another pop-up to its retail line-up with the opening of Village Supply, a new concept designed to support local entrepreneurs. Village Supply is situated at 272 Buckhead Ave. between Warby Parker and Bella Cucina, and is open Thursday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Sundays from noon to 5 p.m. featuring a rotation of pop-ups from food and lifestyle businesses, with a focus on minority- and women-owned brands. The rotation includes Cheese Me, Made Leather Co., Botanical Safari, and BreezKakes.
Cheese Me offers to-go cheese, veggie, and fruit boards and boxes, and is opening in Village Supply through the end of November. The kiosk features grab-and-go individual cheese boxes including three kinds of cheese, charcuterie, and fresh and dried fruits as well as veggie boxes with hummus, vegan cheese boxes, fruit boxes, a Tuscan-inspired cheese box, and canned drinks.
Made Leather Co., founded in 2017 by Lenise Williams (pictured below), offers leather goods handcrafted by artisans in Morocco — handbags, messenger bags, duffle bags, wallets, poufs, and home items for Made Leather Co. The Buckhead Village shop will be open from November 27 through January 2021.
Boutique-style plant shop Botanical Safari will open at Village Supply Friday, November 27, offering a selection of houseplants, including philodendrons, fiddle leaf figs, snake plants, calatheas, and more. Open through January 2021, the shop will also provide education opportunities with plant consultations, installations, and workshops. It joins floral design studio Pinker Times which is also operating a pop-up in the mixed-use development.
BreezKakes will have a limited engagement in Village Supply — December 3 to 6 — offering its mini-sized gourmet cheesecakes, available in over 15 flavors, like Oreo, Apple Pie, Banana Bonza, Strawberri ShortKake, and Turtle Dove. Founded by self-proclaimed “mommie entrepreneur” Breona Herring, BreezKakes makes its cheesecakes from scratch starting at $8.
“Village Supply is a continuation of the property enhancements Jamestown has completed since acquiring the property in July 2019,” a company spokesperson in an email Tuesday told What Now Atlanta. “Jamestown is actively working with community partners and retail tenants to reimagine the public spaces throughout the site and create a property centered around its community.” Additional Village Supply makers will continue to be announced as confirmed on an ongoing basis.
