 It was an exciting moment in North Branch when the folks gathered July 17 to do the ceremonial ground breaking for the new County Market grocery store. Located in the North Branch Market Place commercial development on the northwest corner of the I-35 intersection, the 53,000 square foot store is planned to open next February.
