Downtown Harrisonburg has a grocery store!
By Scott Rogers • June 7, 2011
The Friendly City Food Co-op opened this week, and it is a fantastic addition to Downtown Harrisonburg! Learn a bit more with me via some excerpts from their web site: What can I buy at the Friendly City Food Co-op? The Friendly City features dry grocery, meat, produce, frozen food, dairy, a deli, a grab & go section, coffee and salad bar, and a cafe-style seating area. I've heard there might be lots of local food at the co-op? Indeed! Friendly City actively seeks out relationships with local farmers and producers to highlight a broad selection of natural, organic, and locally-produced food and products. Why is it so exciting that downtown Harrisonburg now has a grocery store? Over the past 10 (or so) years there have been major efforts to revitalize downtown Harrisonburg, which has lead to LOTS of places to eat, shop and live in downtown Harrisonburg. Despite this well rounded city center, however, the absence of a grocery store has been a limitation for those who wanted to be able to live, shop, eat and work downtown. In fact, when I was marketing Urban Exchange both for sale and for lease (now only for lease), a common question was whether there might ever a grocery store in downtown Harrisonburg. Find out more about the Friendly City Food Co-op via their web site, or via Facebook or Twitter.
