Formerly McDonnell's Market (was owned and operated by Kirkwood mayor, Art McDonnell) is located on Big Bend at hwy 270!
I am so excited for the new market, am definitely stopping in today! Hooray, a local organic source!

Thanks for answering, Carola. I linked to your fabulous blog post about McDonnell's Market in the story, so readers can get some background. The owners say they are very excited to be carrying on the tradition of a local grocer at the Kirkwood location.
