ARMSTRONG - After a several-month hiatus, Armstrong is getting a new grocery store starting Thursday, Oct. 15.
Armstrong natives Eric and Brad Eisenbacher are opening THE mARket in the former Kasson Drug location at 503 Sixth St. They'll be assisted in the operation by their sister, Corinna Hargrove, who will be doing most of the meat cutting.
THE mARket, obviously named in honor of Armstrong-Ringsted Schools, features all natural meat from Heartland Meats, Midwest raised and all natural.
