Horrock's Market is like a visit to spring time, especially now, in Kentwood MI. Take a moment and let's look at

what they have to offer: Fresh Flowers, Fresh Vegetables & Fruits, Meats & Dairy, Deli, Garden & Homes Supplies,

 Pet Supplies, Gifts & Accessories, Floral for Weddings, and a Book & Candy Corner. In the spring & summer

they have outdoor  plants and trees for your garden and yard. Worth a visit any time of year, but especially in

the dead of winter.

Horrock's Market is located at 4455 Breton Road at the intersection of 44th St and Breton in Kentwood,

Michigan.   The glass green house soars into the sky and it is easy to spot just south of 44th Street.

The array of fresh flowers, fresh fruits and vegetables is impressive. They always have weekly specials on

some items of their produce. It is hard to resist bringing it all home, it looks so delicious. Here are a few photos

 that tell the story better than I could.

These exotic vegetables are always intriquing - we tried the Blue Peruvian Potatoes on the far right - the taste

was good but odd to see purply-blue potatoes on your plate.  We skipped the edo malanga on the left, not

knowing what it is and how to use it. Maybe next time we are in Kentwood, after we do a little research.

Terry, I love the wonderful pictures you take!  Horrocks is one of my favorite stores.  Unfortunately, I don't get to go to it as often as I'd like.

Lola: It is nice to see the flowers in bloom this time of the year. Spring is close and Horrocks  lets us smell spring a few weeks early.
