Community Leadership Award...

One of our goals here at Andy's Market is to offer ways to better your quality of life through health and nutrition.

We like to support and applaud those in our community who are like  minded and take action to improve the lives of those around them.  

Dr. Alison Kirby, a pediatrician at the Walla Walla Clinic is one such individual.  
She has received the President's Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition 2011 Community Leadership Award for establishing the Lincoln Health Center, the first school-based health clinic in Eastern Washington at Lincoln Alternative High School.

Andy's traditions...



Anyone who has ever worked at Andy's Market knows about party day.  Mrs. A took great care to make sure that her employees were happy and appreciated and one way she did this was to have a celebration every month with a huge spread of food and cake to honor anyone's birthday that month. 

The back room would be decked out with all kinds of goodies all day long.  Just one of the many ways that Mrs. A was the heart of this special grocery store.

Andy's traditions...



One of the great Andy's Market traditions has always been the summer fruit tent sale.  Full of local produce at its peak and great prices, this is some of the very best that Andy's has to off all year.

Andy's Market when...







Over the years Andy's as not only had the best customers, but the best employees.  Many students and community members have spent countless hours helping to make Andy's Market what it is today.

Without a great staff that believes in team work and truly cares for our customers....Andy's would not be the same shopping experience.  Our staff is a huge part of what makes Andy's Market a great place to shop.
