“It’s such an important aspect in everyone’s life,” Baack said.
A trained French Chef, McAdams owned a restaurant, and the couple established a grocery store in Land O’ Lakes.
“It was a food desert,” Baack said. “Our town for three years hadn’t had a grocery store and it was really a hardship for a lot of local people who didn’t have enough money to drive 20 miles to get to a decent grocery store.”
Baack said investing in the grocery store to meet a common need felt meaningful.
“How wonderful it made us feel to put our money to work in our community instead of just keeping it piled up in an investment account somewhere,” she said.
