Wegmans

Fantastic news for Harford County residents....Wegmans is coming! I've been watching the progress for the past few months. If you don't know where it is, just take the exit for Rt. 24 off of I95 - you can't miss the huge mass of cleared land atop a hill at Emmorton and Woodsdale roads. The store is expected to be 120,000 to 140,000 square feet and employ as many as 600 people according to Jo Natale said (see Baltimore Sun article).

Harford County residents who are a fan of Wegmans no longer need to drive to Hunt Valley. I occassionaly make the 40 minute trip for items I can only browse at Wegmans like their selection of teas and the incredible seafood selection. Last time I was there my eyes were popping at the size of the flounder, snapper, and cod - just to name a very few of what they offer. If you are looking for unusual produce, you will find it at Wegmans for sure. I had never seen the types of mushrooms or purple potatoes until shopping there.

I think all the residents of Harford County are going to be hooked on Wegmans.
