Greensburg, the little town that could. The city offers a variety of restaurants, bars, and boutiques to choose from. It also offers several tattoo parlors, coffee shops, a natural food store, and a skateboard shop to satisfy Greensburg’s sub-culture. There is something for anyone in the “Burg”.
Nature’s Way, located on 796 Highland Ave., is an independent grocery store that caters to the likes of health-nuts, vegetarians, and vegans (yes, there is a difference).
Nature’s Way offers a multitude of alternative foods and vitamins. The Tofurky is a unique item that can be found at the store. It is soy based and has a delicious mushroom stuffing in the center. For those who suffer from the “I can’t eat anything here” holiday get-togethers, Nature’s Way has something to curb your frustration.
