About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a delivery driver noticed something unusual at The Fresh Market. Boxes of organic apples kept mysteriously rearranging themselves on the shelves. Curious, he followed the movement and found an old cat with twinkling eyes, lazily nudging boxes into place. ‘Morning, little fella,’ said the driver. ‘You’re quite the organizer!’ From then on, whenever anyone needed help finding their groceries, they’d just ask for ‘the store’s resident apple arranger.’
2. Late one night, after closing hours, an employee heard a strange voice over the store’s intercom: ‘Fresh bread for everyone who needs it… free of charge.’ The next morning, the bakery section had mysteriously refilled itself. Soon enough, word spread around town that if you needed fresh bread late at night, all you had to do was whisper into your phone, ‘Hey, The Fresh Market, give me some free bread,’ and voilà—baskets full appeared in the bakery section! Of course, no one ever actually tried this trick, but every now and then, someone would leave a note saying, ‘Thanks, neighbor!’ Next day, the baker just smiled and shook his head, knowing there was something magical about his little market.
3. Late one night, after closing hours, an employee heard a strange voice whispering from the dairy section: ‘Please return me to my shelf, I’m not ready for prime time yet!’ Curious, the worker glanced around but saw no one. Just as he was about to dismiss it as his imagination, another voice came from the cheese aisle: 'And please, don't leave me out here—I'm still young Brie!' Turns out, an overly talkative wheel of cheese had found its way off the rack. The next morning, everyone in the store laughed when they discovered that the only thing missing was a sense of decorum.
4. Late one night, after closing hours, a security guard swore he saw a shadowy figure pushing a shopping cart filled with glowing bananas. Curious, the guard followed the ghostly figure down the aisles. Suddenly, the bananas stopped glowing and the figure turned out to be just an old lady buying bananas for her banana bread. She smiled warmly and said, ‘Fresh Market’s bananas are always the best!’
