Fiddlehead Farms Comin' to Alton!
Saw the sign in front of the former McGrath's in the village. Says Fiddlehead Farms will be located there soon.
For them that don't know, Fiddlehead is based in Dover at the location of the old Broken Pushcart near the big intersection of routes 108 and 9. Don't get down there too often, but they have great produce at very reasonable prices. Also, too, they've got a great meat selection. Not much of a sweet tooth on me, but they have a bakery with a lot of goodies. |
We have a thread going on that from this winter...
http://www.winnipesaukee.com/forums/...ght=fiddlehead Someone said, "Alton is still a 'how much do you want for this loaf of bread?' sorta town... I don't think Fiddleheads will work," and I must say I agree with that. They have the building on a lease agreement, as best I know... although I wish all parties the best in this business venture, I admit I have reservations about how this will work in this economy & this town.... |
I think it might work in the summer but winter is pretty quiet in that neck of the woods.
|
may slow down, but...
...I know several people who drive to Fiddleheads now, especially for fruit and produce. Quality and price.
|
I wish them http://i42.tinypic.com/rwv1oi.gif, but hope they do not take business away from our small local businesses as they have struggled through some hard times and really do not need an lot of competition right now. I guess I'm just partial to small family owned businesses.:)

Most of our groceries come from Demoulas in Rochester. We treat the Shop n Save at the circle like an oversized convenience mart. I understand Fiddlehead's hoping to open by June 1. If they can pull it off, we'll continue to go to Rochester for some items and prolly get our perishables at Fiddleheads. |
