Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
It's not the big anniversaries that get me -- the 10-, 20- and 25-year milestones -- it's the little ones. The one-year anniversaries are the ones that sneak up from behind and cold-cock you. Boom! Another year is gone.
And that's just what Green Grocer is doing this weekend as they celebrate their first year of existence. Can it really be just a year ago that Lauren Daniels told us of the coming of this Chicago-based super food store; since I discovered the green smoothies that shaved pounds and pounds from my midsection; since I found one of the best spots to buy Brian Luscher's Red Hots?
Apparently it has.
To mark the accomplishment Grenville Avenue's little grocer is hosting some of the local growers and artisans they feature on their shelves. Look for Luscher's Post Oak Red Hots, On Pure Ground Dairy, Noble Coyote Coffee Roasters, Hail Merry, Eat the Yard and local breweries and wineries. They'll all be sampling their goods while the Green Grocer kitchen provides light bites.
Green Grocer, 3614 Greenville Ave., 10 a.m.- 4 p.m, January 25
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
