Elgin's northwest side no longer a ‘food desert'

December 14, 2014

Until Butera Market opened on Elgin's northwest side, local residents had to drive at least two miles to find a good selection of fresh fruit and vegetables. That all changed in the past week, with Butera's soft opening Dec. 5 followed by an official opening Wednesday. "My parents were super excited," resident Deidre Snelson Plavsicshe said. "It's nice to see something done with the space because it's been empty for so long."
