Mayor and Council together with the Business Partnership will host a ribbon cutting ceremony at Waterwitch Neighborhood Grocer and Gourmet on Friday, October 25 at 6:00 pm.
The new Grocery and gourmet shop which opened last month is owned by Nancy Burton and Eileen Ricco, popular and successful owners of Garden Flowers & Plants, located next to the Grocer.
The business professional expanded their business to include a larger shopping experience for Bayshore residents and beyond. Both shops are located on Waterwitch Ave. at Shore Drive, across from Huddy Park.
After purchasing the adjacent commercial space three years ago, the women transformed it into a unique shopping experience to complement the garden shop they opened in 2013.
The Grocery and Gourmet shop offers curated conventional and organic produce, dairy, cheeses, gluten-free, and plant-based items as well as fresh bread and pastries, specialty coffees and cold brews from local roasters. There is a Pachamama Juice Bar offering cold-pressed juices, bowls, smoothies, and salads.
Customized gourmet gift baskets with local delivery are also offered.
Supporting local businesses and the economy, Waterwitch Neighborhood Grocer & Gourmet sources products from nearby farms and artisans. The store is open Monday through– Saturday, from 7 am to 9 pm; and Sundays, from 7 am to 5 pm
The public is invited to join the celebration and experience the ultimate neighborhood grocery store!
