Juicy & Sweet Summer Treats Have Arrived!

Sweet (and juicy!) signs of summer are arriving in our store. Have you tried the Acorn Acres Farm's strawberries yet? Picked fresh from the vine by one of our farmer partners, they are a delight on their own, but these special fruits also make great toppings for your favorite salads, pancakes, and more!

Pre-order to reserve your pint of strawberries and other seasonal produce for pick up Wednesday-Saturday. We'll see you soon!
