The Open Shelf gets its keys to the new space August 31, woo hoo!! BUT that doesn’t mean the doors will be open to the public…. just yet. It will bring us one step closer to having our very own independent bookstore + community space right here in Mt. Juliet. 🥹📚

Want to help this local dream become a reality? Follow @theopenshelfbooks (on FB, IG and TikTok) and watch as the journey unfolds, shop her current shelves inside The Village Forager, or order your next read through her Bookshop.org page — every purchase helps support the new shop.

Small business. Big dream. And one more really cool thing coming to Mt. Juliet. 💛

Ladies and gentlemen…let’s get to it!

-Amber Hitch, John Hitch and Alex Robertson

We love sharing new restaurants and all the fun things happening around Mt. Juliet — but community is about more than that. It’s about showing up for each other, too.

So we’re excited to host our first Buzz Build Day with Habitat for Humanity!

We have just 20 spots for locals to spend the day building, meeting new people and doing something that makes a tangible difference in our community.

- No experience needed
- Sunday, September 20 | 7 AM–around 3:30 PM
- Ages 16+ | Full-day commitment
- Breakfast, lunch + snacks provided

We’d LOVE to see Mt. Juliet fill these spots quickly. 💛

Grab a friend, come by yourself, and let’s build something good together.

🍔 MJ BURGER WEEK IS HERE!

Burger Week officially starts TODAY! For one week, 13 local restaurants are serving up special $9 burgers created just for Burger Week.

And here’s the thing: this isn’t a competition. There’s no voting, no “best burger” and no winner to crown. Burger Week is simply about getting out, trying somewhere new (or visiting an old favorite!), grabbing a burger with a friend and showing some love to our local restaurants.

But YOU can win!

One Burger Week fan will take home $325 in local restaurant gift cards!

🍔 Try a Burger Week burger
📸 Snap a photo
📲 Share it to your Instagram or Facebook story or feed
🏷️ Tag @mtjulietbuzz + the restaurant

Each different participating restaurant = another entry, up to 13 chances to win!

So grab a friend, pick your first stop and eat your way around Mt. Juliet this week. ❤️

August 24–30 | 13 restaurants | $9 burgers

Be sure to check each restaurant’s hours before heading out — participating restaurants have different operating days and hours.
