Essentials
Closest grocery store and mall. Great for staples. Fresh foods departments have improved in recent times, though I prefer to pick up my vegetables at IGA on Main Street and 14th Avenue.

Everything Else
Well stocked grocery store. The fresh produce section features "organic" and conventional fruits and veggies that are very well stored. This is my go-to market when the farmer's markets are closed.
