del Carmen's Super Delicious Super Foods

Regular City Greens shoppers know that we've been getting in new products left and right lately. One new favorite is del Carmen - authentic, Cuban-style black beans. Our market sells the original style, gluten free, and gluten free hummus.


Owner of del Carmen, Estie Cruz-Curoe, was born in Cuba and moved to the United States as a child. Her beans are made in the traditional Cuban method, only in small batches, which means they are hand-made with the slow cooked method and fresh, quality ingredients.


These delicious del Carmen beans are sold at City Greens in 16 oz. containers (8 oz. for the hummus). There are no preservatives in these products, so they're found in our freezer section.

The best thing about these products? They're already cooked and seasoned, so all you have to do is heat them up. Pair them with rice (Martin Rice from Bernie, MO is sold at City Greens at $0.70/lb), add some leftover chicken if you like, a size of veggies, a dollop of plain Windcrest Dairy yogurt, and you have a complete, well-balanced meal. (Or you can eat them right out of the container on their own - they're that good!!)

Come on over to City Greens to check out these super delicious super foods from del Carmen!

Closing Early on Thursday

City Greeners, we at the market know that many folks have been taking advantage of our extended hours on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Being open until 7pm allows the working 9-5 crowd to stop by the market without feeling the impending doom of locked doors.

Unfortunately, for this Thursday, October 3rd, that feeling will be surfacing once again.



For this Thursday and this Thursday only, we will be locking the City Greens doors at 4pm. We apologize for any inconvenience, especially to that 9-5 crowd, but will be open again on Friday the normal 10-5 hours, and then we'll be back to the normal schedule next week!

Many thanks to our loyal shoppers for the continued support!
