"With a location in Old City and Fishtown, Riverwards is the grocery store for Philadelphians seeking local produce, dairy, meat, and pantry staples of all kinds. Do they not have what you’re looking for? Riverwards’ staff is extremely helpful. Want to serve local turkey for Thanksgiving dinner? Riverwards is selling locally raised turkeys from Kyle Smith of Smith Poultry and Lancaster Farm Fresh Cooperative. You can preorder either (or both!) on Riverwards’ website — but make sure to get on it fast. They can sell out." - Dayna Evans
"Riverwards Produce Market is the spot. Vincent Finazzo and his team do such a great job of sourcing and stocking the best local goods." - Emily Riddell
"In Fishtown, Riverwards Produce—founded and owned by Vincent Finazzo—operates as a nimble, local market that pivots when materials are scarce: Finazzo emphasizes that the problem is 'less about food production and more about material shortages' such as glass bottles, metal cans, paper bags, and small components, and reports that 'all of our distributors are experiencing shortages.' One of Riverwards’s largest distributors has only been able to deliver about 75 percent of what is ordered, making availability unpredictable and sometimes leaving whole weeks without certain items. Because Riverwards focuses on independent farmers and local producers and avoids strict contracts and large-volume buys, the shop can quickly switch suppliers, offer preorders, and host pop-up events with local vendors (including local hard cider and fresh oysters) to help customers get what they need for the holidays—Finazzo insists 'you’re still going to have a badass holiday' even if some staples are missing." - Kae Lani Palmisano
