Our regular feature highlighting local markets and services that cater to our sized households.
An interesting week as we browsed around our great local markets. A couple of very seasonal favorites make an appearance (smelt) along with new lines of local and organic products. This week our shoppers visited The Anderson’s (Maumee), Walt Churchill’s Market (Perrysburg), Monnette’s (Secor) and Fresh Market.
Smelt makes its first appearance. Plus two new chips at The Anderson’s, lemon blueberry cookies, and finally caramelized onion cheese spread. The Anderson’s never disappoints.
