Right in the heart of Medford Street there’s a little grocery store that packs a not so little array of items for an almost endless variety of choices to make your next great meal. This little gem has been open since November of 2017 and was started up from a kickstarter campaign.

To get the word out about their plan, they partnered with the Winter Hill Brewing Company to run a farmers market in their parking lot, offering fresh produce and educate the public of their intentions to open a storefront in the neighborhood.

They offer locally sourced items from around the area like Taza Chocolate, Deano’s Pasta, and Pig Rock sausages. One way to offer many items is to sell those items in bulk. There are containers of rice, dried beans, pasta, and dried fruits. You can also pick up loose teas and a variety of spices. Milk, eggs, cheese, yogurt, juices and non-dairy milk are also available.

Of course, let’s not forget the produce! What may be deemed non salable by a supermarket because it may be a slightly different shape or have a blemish or it just doesn’t meet other certain cosmetic standards, those very fruits and vegetables are provided here at a lower cost to the public. So if you’re in the area I highly recommend stopping by and checking it out.
