Cottage Grove Bakery Expands Presence at Josh’s Farmers Market

Pastry chef and owner Nikki Maglodi launched the weekly appearances to connect directly with the local community. The menu shifts based on seasonal ingredients and new recipes, often featuring items like pesto Italian cheese rolls, orange scones, and brown butter chocolate chunk cookies. Because the bakery produces these goods in limited batches, the offerings are available only while supplies last, encouraging early arrivals for those seeking specific items.

This partnership aligns with the history of Josh's Farmers Market, a family-run staple that has served Mooresville since 1990. After years of operating from temporary sites, the market moved to its permanent home at 142 Joe V Knox Avenue in June 2026. Beyond the Saturday market, Cottage Grove Bakery is scaling its operations across the Lake Norman area, providing breakfast and brunch catering for office meetings, client gifts, and corporate events.
