Fulfilling Needs Locally

• Northwest Arkansas’ Main Supermarket Chains — Wal-Mart, Harps and Marvin’s IGA — all carry a few kosher items in each store year-round (look for Latin, gourmet or special diet sections), but certain locations have a wider variety than others. As Pesach nears, the Marvin’s on College Avenue and the Wal-Marts on Sixth Street and Mall Avenue (all in Fayetteville), have the best selection of kosher-for-Passover goods. Temple Shalom contacts the College Ave. Marvin’s and Mall Avenue Wal-Mart several weeks before to ensure the inventory will be adequate.
• Kosher Grape Juice (Knudsen Brand) is available at the Ozark Natural Foods Co-op, 1554 N. College Ave., Fayetteville 72703; (479) 521-7558. Check the label, because Knudsen makes both kosher and non-kosher grape juice.
• Kosher Wine — The widest selection of kosher wines in the area is stocked by Liquor World, 3330 N. College Ave., Fayetteville 72703; (479) 587-0480.
