Grocery Department
Knowing where your food comes from, what’s in it and how it’s made can be a full-time job. Luckily, at the Merc, it is our full-time job. We do our homework, and we’re passionate about sharing what we know with our customers.
Whether you’re looking for organic staples like canned tomatoes or broth, everyday basics such as local butter, milk and eggs or a hard-to-find gourmet item, we have what you need. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff will help you track down the products you’re looking for and guide you to solutions when you have questions.
