Palo Cedro to see changes with new pharmacy, new brewery | The Buzz
Earlier this year, one of the former Rite Aid stores in greater Redding got a new identity when Val-U MART , an independent grocery store, opened in Westwood Village. Now things are happening at the former Rite Aid in Palo Cedro on Deschutes Drive just off Highway 44 east of Redding. Modoc Family Pharmacy is expected to open a location there this fall. The business will take up about 4,000 square feet of space in the old Rite Aid building.
