Our Goals
Building community starts with you and me.
We have three main goals but it all centers around our vision that this will be much more than "just" a grocery store, but it all starts there.
To open a grocery store in the village of Dundee with healthy, nutritious fresh foods and whole food staples, preferably from local providers, at competitive pricing, accepting many methods of payment, providing access to experts who will help shoppers navigate government assistance programs.
To maintain a kitchen in the store to make bread, soup, and convenience foods/frozen meals for sale in the store. The kitchen will also be a place for cooking classes for all ages. Available to rent during hours not in use.
​
To build a community hub in the store, with a beverage station, light snacks, and homemade soups with comfortable seating. A cozy space for shoppers to sit and chat for a while.​
