Tiny grocery store and eatery squeezes into South Austin neighborhood
Tiny grocery store and eatery squeezes into South Austin neighborhood Tiny Grocer is taking over the former Farm to Market Grocery space on South Congress Avenue. Not-so-tiny changes are underway at the former site of neighborhood shop Farm to Market Grocery. But never fear, Austin, as much about the incoming concept will be in the spirit of the South Congress staple, which closed in November after 15 years in business. Hospitality industry vet Steph Steele purchased Farm to Market, located at 1718 S. Congress Ave., from owner Peg McCoy December 1, with plans to open a neighborhood market of her own in the space. But the idea for Steele’s Tiny Grocer, which she hopes to open in February ahead of Valentine’s Day, has been in the works for much longer.
