Since I seem to be on a grocery streak.... why not talk about Wintergreen Grocery and its fun, local, and fresh feel. If you are staying at the Wintergreen Ski Resort or just are in the mood for a small road trip to a local grocery hop on the road and head to the Wintergreen Grocery. I loved the simplicity of this place, offering all you need without too many extras...why does Harris Teeter offer 500 different kinds of pasta?? It's all the same right....
Wintergreen Grocery offers mainstream items such as Honey Nut Cheerios and Campbells chicken noodle soup as well as locally made foods from around the C'ville area. I loved browsing the homemade treats and locally made granolas and jams.
There are many options for natural foods as well, such as food from Neshaminy Valley Natrual Foods, a group that distributes organic grains, seeds, and nuts... healthy stuff! Loving these homemade labels as well...
I loved the way certain foods were organizes and presented to the customers. By using baskets and old crates the stored feels more warm and welcoming and quickly becomes a relaxing atmosphere for grocery shopping, something that can sometimes be seen as stressful and overwhelming.

From local foods to crafts this place is a gem within the world of gorcerys! You can even pick up a gift or two when you visit for friends back home, such as these locally crafted natural bee's wax candles.
Extra bonus.... Blude Ridge Pig is located RIGHT next door. Sadly it was closed when I went to visit but I will definitely be making the road trip for some BBQ this spring ( sure to be a later blog post!). I hear it's simply awesome.
Have a Super Saturday... and check back soon!
