The Local Neighborhood Grocer by: Shopping Locally Many neighborhoods have their own corner grocer, that quirky little store where the locals shop, and few others know it even exists.
My family owned and operated one such market from the late 1920s through the mid 1940s. Even now, some 60 years later, this little corner grocer still exists.
The object of this group is find and document these little markets. |
