When Food is More Than FoodA Talk with Ramon
Sat., Nov. 17th, 10:30am – 12 pm
Ramon Rodriguez Carrion is a Spanish-born organic food connoisseur & neighborhood grocer. He managed one of the oldest independent organic health food stores in London before coming to Faribault to open his dream store, Ruf Acres Market.
Ramon’s approach is to build lasting relationships with customers, and to focus on foods that are ‘ready to cook’ as opposed to ‘ready to eat’ with an emphasis on healthy foods that taste good. He envisions neighborhood grocery stores as a way to support community health and nutrition by educating customers about food while promoting a local culture of healthy eating and living.
