Healthy Harvest gives downtown Rock Island better food choices

April 2024 · 1 minute read
A first-of-its-kind business in the area is up and running in Rock Island. Healthy Harvest Urban Farms is downtown rock island’s first completely vegan grocery store and cafe. Co-owner Chad Summers says his new store caters to a need people once had to go elsewhere to receive.    “It’s what’s really been needed around here,” Summers said. “There’s nothing like this. You have to go to Iowa City to find something even close to resemble this.”   Customers are glad to have this type of store here, as well. The rave reviews have been pouring in, as the crowd continues to positively react to what Healthy Harvest has to offer.   “I’ve been really disappointed with some of the produce that’s been in the markets, lately,” small business owner Amber Burnat said. “And, I wanted something that’s fresh, that I can depend on. That isn’t going to spoil in a few days.”   “The community support has been overwhelming, especially from the citizens of Rock Island,” says Summers. “And, especially after the cafe opened up. It’s just been completely beyond our wildest dreams. “
