Guse Green Grocer opens Guse Hardware, a fixture at 46th Street and Bryant Avenue S. in Minneapolis, is going green -- and edible. Owners Tom and Terry Thomson are debuting Guse Green Grocer, with a grand opening on Saturday. While stressing that "we're not purists or food bullies," the Thomsons' mission is to stock healthful foods such as Thousand Hills beef, Callister Farms chicken and eggs, Rustica Bakery goods, Sunrise pasta from Hibbing, plus a variety of organic, gluten-free and allergen-free products. There's also a deli area and flower nook. Saturday's opening begins at 7:30 a.m. and will feature food tastings by vendors.
