New local grocer The Farmer's Larder set to open in German Village
You don't have to wait on farmers markets to shop small and support local, thanks to a new independent grocery store opening in German Village. The Farmer's Larder will celebrate it's grand opening on Nov. 21 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. at 900 S. High Street. The store is the result of a grassroots effort of neighbors, farmers, bakers and growers, spearheaded by Jamie Pritchard, owner of WIT Farm in Blue Rock in Muskingum County, to bring farm fresh and specialty products to German Village year round. Historically, a farmhouse larder was a large pantry built to store important staples and preserved foods, like butter, eggs, cured meat and produce.

For eight years, she's held a spot at the German Village farmer's market, and supplied meat and poultry for Chapman's Eat Market before it closed in 2025. The closure prompted some brainstorming, and Pritchard started to spread the word amongst her market
