Grocery shoppers looking for healthy options will have yet another natural store to visit in Maryland.
Popular health food grocer Sprouts Farmers Market will be opening a third location in Montgomery County as an anchor in a redevelopment project at a Rockville shopping center. Sprouts recently announced it would be opening its first location in Prince George’s County in mid-2028.
Also, leaders were on hand recently for the opening of the largest human composting facility in the country – and the world – which happens to be housed in Howard County. The Elkridge facility of Earth Funeral is also the company’s first on the East Coast. It can process up to 2,000 human remains annually and converts them into nutrient-rich soil.
Meanwhile, if you’re craving a delicious blend of empanadas, lomitos and parrilla barbecues, check out the Argentine restaurant called El Patio, which has opened its second location in the county.
And finally, a new $45 million maintenance facility in Harford County has opened. The new Maryland Army National Guard facilities include larger, climate-controlled maintenance bays capable of servicing oversized military vehicles, heated flooring, overhead cranes and an upgraded shop infrastructure to increase maintenance efficiency and reduce workplace hazards.
