The community of Dripping Springs is excited about the opening of the new HEB there this month, and the Stanberry Green Team is so proud of many of HEB’s great decisions in the process.  They listened to locals asking for more organic choices, and expanded that department.  They met with local farmers and producers, tasted wares and made purchasing commitments with Pure Luck Dairy in Dripping Springs for goat cheese, potted plants from Klepac Greenhouses in Blanco; fresh flowers from Arnosky Farms in Blanco; lettuce from Bella Verdi Farms in Dripping Springs; wine from Wimberley Valley Winery and Texas Hills Vineyards in Johnson City.

Buying locally produced foods is important for superior nutrition, environmental reasons (no fossil fuel based shipping), and because it keeps important dollars in the local economy.  Congratulations to HEB for being an excellent civic and environmental citizen!
