[edit] People’s Grocery and Wellness Village Site Design

The grocery store site is meant to be a physical embodiment of the values of People’s Grocery. This 15,000 square foot full-service cooperative grocery store is set in a pleasant pedestrian environment with wide, shady walks, seating areas, a bus shelter, and sidewalk bulb-outs at intersections. Safe, high-quality bicycle facilities include a protected bike entrance and parking area. Climate-appropriate planting is used throughout the site. A large food forest demonstration garden forms the centerpiece of the site, with space nearby for a moveable stage to be set up festival days.
