Winter Ridge is proud to be an independent, locally-owned alternative to large, foreign-owned national grocery chains. The money our customers spend here stays in and grows the local economy. We emphasize local products and work with other local businesses to meet our own business needs.
Offering products that are free of artificial flavors, artificial colors, artificial preservatives, trans fats, and high-fructose corn syrup is important here at Winter Ridge. We sell meat and dairy that is free of added hormones or antibiotics, and we strive to offer food that is non-GMO Verified whenever possible.
We are all about delicious food, whether it is freshly made in our deli and bakery or cooked in your own kitchen with ingredients purchased from the store. We know that it is important to you that food is healthful, fresh and natural, and we also believe it also should be a flavorful delight for your taste buds.

"Got Weeds? Use Vinegar, Not Roundup"
This year (2011) Monsanto, the product’s evil manufacturer, agreed with the New York Attorney General’s office to discontinue their use of the terms “biodegradable” and “environmentally friendly” in ads promoting Roundup. Why? Because these terms were bald-faced lies. Roundup is neither biodegradable nor environmentally friendly.
The next time you want to murder your weeds, why douse them with something that will remain in the soil for who knows how long? Maybe you should reach for vinegar instead. Vinegar is cheap. It’s easy to use. I keep gallons of it in my garden shed.
How to Apply: You can use a watering can, a spray bottle or a pump-sprayer to apply vinegar. I use a pump-sprayer, because it is more efficient. Be sure to rinse your sprayer after use, or metal parts (if any) can corrode.
Make your application on a warm, sunny, calm (not windy) day. Vinegar is not selective; it can potentially harm plants you wish to keep, should you accidentally spray them. As I said earlier, I use vinegar on walkways, where grass and ornamental plants are not an issue.

Comments from fans:
"Lane We****: Mix 1/2 gallon of Apple Cider Vinegar, 1/4 c sea salt and 1/2 tsp Dawn liquid dish soap and pour into a spray bottle. Then just spray weeds thoroughly."
"Pami Ta****: I use distilled white vinegar ... it works every time"
"Roxann Han*****: My husband once emptied his spayer by blasting a 4 x 4 section of the lawn. It had old round up in the sprayer. that 4x 4 section is still dead. that was 4 or 5 yrs. ago. I personally haven't used chemicals since about 1996. My dog was exposed to malithione and suffered immediate neuro/ brain damage . Had to be euthanized.So if I can grow beautiful gardens using only natural remedies, anyone can. Monsanto you are liars, all of you!"
"Natural Pesticide: Avoid the chemicals and make your own!"
