Outpost Natural Foods
Multiple locations
Outpost Natural Foods has become a Milwaukee institution during its 40 years in business. Not only does it provide fresh, nutritious produce and meat (and top-notch beer, wine and snacks), but it's also at the forefront of the Our Milwaukee movement, which encourages shoppers to spend their money in locally owned businesses to boost our community's economy. Even better? The Outpost staffers are unfailingly kind and helpful. (L.K.)
