Are you reading something new or an article from 2019, Earth Fare was going to open in the shopping center behind Miller's Ale House on 441 and it was announced last February 2020 that they were closing 14 stores in Florida including the one in Lady Lake under construction.

Apparently in many cases your way is what we feel like giving you.

Wait till minimum wage is $ 15 per hour and businesses notice that employees are not worth that and machines replace workers in droves.

I-95 is like a dividing line in Harford County Maryland, crime and everything that goes with crime (drugs) happens on the east of I-95 and west of I-95 it's a totally different world. It's like going from TV to Wildwood. I wouldn't even stay in those motels. Next time go about three more miles to Exit 80 exit east Belcamp and go right at the light, there is a Spring Hill Suites, very nice motel and a nice Pizza Hut in the shopping right next door.

If you stop at Exit 77 again, next time bypass Edgewood exit East, take the exit in the opposite direction. Exit Route 24 West (Bel Air) and go to the first light about a 1/4 mile and turn right, it's Route 924 Tollgate Rd. On the right side of the road about 100 yards is a WaWa, it's very nice and big, at the second light about another 100 yards is a Wegman's Grocery Store, it's the best grocery store you'll ever go inside. I use to live across the street. If you continue on 924 Tollgate go about a 1/2 mile and you'll pass a Walgreens and then a 7/11, the shopping behind the 7/11 has a restaurant that's called Box Hill Pizza, it has the best steak subs in the world, best crabs cake in Maryland, and they have great pizza and spaghetti dinners. That's all within 2 miles of I-95.

John as you can see they won't let it be posted. Go to the other site and search "earth fare" It was from Jan. 30th. '21

This has nothing to do with BK or any-other fast food restaurants but more about junk food versus wholesome food. I may be way off base with this post. Going back to 1976 my late cousin ( the brother I never had) took an 11 week cross country tour by van. We camped out in National Parks when we could. I can remember one morning we happened to stop at McDonald’s and he was throwing away the Canadian Bacon on his Egg McMuffin. I said don’t throw that away I’ll eat it, he responded it’s bad for you it has nitrates in it. My point of the story is that he was eating Whole Foods drinking herb tea in the evening by the campfire while I was swigging from a bottle of whiskey and drinking 6 packs of beer. My cousin passed away from colon cancer at age 49. I haven’t had any booze in over 36 years but my point is he ate healthy I did not for many years I should have been the one that passed at such a young age. Quality food plays a role but moderation is the key.

We make our own. Sams Club sells one pound lump crab meat for $20 and you can buy Old Bay at the Neighborhood Walmart at Colony, and sometimes Publix will have it.Then we use the recipe on the McCormick website, the maker of Old Bay.

The only difference we do, is instead of broiling for 10 minutes, we bake at 370 for 15 minutes and then broil for 2 minutes to brown the tops. These are the ones we had Super Bowl Sunday. I like them on a hamburger bun with lettuce & tomato. Harford

For live crabs, I haven't tried this place, but Bubba's Crab and Seafood in Leesburg advertises in the Daily Sun all the time.

Since we cannot link the online newspaper website, here is the latest news per that paper.

New investment revives Earth Fare’s plan for store in Lady Lake

New investment has revived Earth Fare’s plan for a natural and organic grocery market at Lady Lake Commons on U.S. Hwy. 27/441.

In February of 2020, Earth Fare closed all of its 50 locations following the previous ownership’s bankruptcy declaration. It has since been revitalized through an investment from Hulsing Enterprises and CEO Dennis Hulsing, as well as involvement from one of its original Earth Fare founders, Randy Talley, and Mike Cianciarulo, a former president of Earth Fare. The new ownership group has since opened 18 locations throughout the east, including Tampa Bay and Seminole.

Originally founded in 1975, Earth Fare is an organic grocer and wellness market with a mission to improve lives by “making healthy food available to everyone.” Earth Fare keeps the “good stuff” like organic fruits, vegetables, and responsibly sourced meat and seafood and leaves out the “bad stuff” like meat raised with antibiotics and artificial hormones as well as artificial flavors, dyes, sugars and more.

“You will find many of the same trusted brands and house made specialties back in our store, and we are adding some new ones,” said David Isinghood, chief operations officer. “Keeping our Food Philosophy and product standards at the forefront, we are expanding our craftsmanship and increasing our selection of Organic produce and local offerings.”

“The Lady Lake and The Villages community was and remains a natural fit for Earth Fare,” said Earth Fare Chief Sales Officer Randy Talley. “We look forward to welcoming the community through our doors and working to be an essential part of this growing neighborhood.”

The developer of Lady Lake Commons, Benchmark Group, was determined to bring a grocer to their center.

“We have been fans of the Earth Fare brand for some time” said Benchmark CFO Jeffrey Withee. “We felt it was important to bring that category to our retail mix in Lady Lake.”

Lad Lake Commons features Miller’s Ale House, Mission BBQ, Huey Magoo’s, a Goodwill store and Total Wine.

Benchmark Group is the Developer of the Sam’s Club development, Village Crossroads and Lady Lake Crossing.

The retail space has already begun minor renovations, with the goal of resuming operations in the second quarter of 2021. A grand opening may be announced at a later date.
