In my conversations with Queenston Street residence there is one thing that comes up over and over again- a grocery store. The Queenston Street neighbourhood has few options when it comes to buying their food. The closest full grocery store is the Food Basics on Harzel Road. If you are walking it takes 30 minutes to get from the hospital to the grocery store. Thankfully there is a bus route that goes down Queenston to Hartzel, but if you have ever taken the bus you know the frustrations of lugging more then one thing onto the bus, never mind your groceries.
Does Queenston Street need a closer and more accessible grocery store? What makes Queenston a prime location for a grocery store? What kind of grocery store would you like? A market? Fresh produce? Give us your thoughts.

this is why giant tiger now offers fresh produce because no one else does in the area. and some people like it too because iti s close to comminity care so if money is tight get what you can from the food bank and use your last few pennies for fresh apples etc. lots of people do this
