While many grocery stores these day carry at least some local products, a new store on Mercer Island aims to make 75 percent of its goods local.
Bryce Caldwell, who has operated Freshy’s Seafood Market on Mercer Island since 2010, plans to open a broader store with organic produce, dairy, seafood and meat mainly from King, Snohomish, Pierce, Skagit, Pacific and Grays Harbor counties.
The 2,500-square-foot Freshy’s Local Market debuts on Feb. 9 at 2601 76th Ave. S.E. on Mercer Island.
