"For too long, families in Vinton County have been without a full-service grocery store and burdened with traveling up to 30 minutes or more to buy fresh foods. Today’s announcement represents an important step to end the food desert. This effort has been a true public-private partnership with both state and federal funding, and I am hopeful a final deal will be reached to bring a grocery store back to Vinton County.”
