Where to buy fresh vegetables, fruits, milk.. in Helsinki

Post by nkm » Sun Jul 20, 2008 3:57 pm

Are there some shops selling variety of green vegetables, fruits etc.? S-Market like shops have very limited collection.

Is it also possible to buy pure milk (i.e. unprocessed, without fancy HYLA stamp or fat reduction)

thanks :)

why do you ask when you know the answer?
Q: some shops selling variety of green vegetables, fruits etc.?
A: S-Market like shops

prisma and citymarket being the top of the respective chains.
unprocessed milk became illegal to sell to the public with some eu hoodah.

Well, aren't there some kind of weekend shops? At least I know about one in Hakaneimi, especially for meat products..., but now I am vegetarian.

markets - yes in the summer maybe but nothing much to yodle about. the variety ain't anything bigger than in a big citymarket and wait for winter if you say the selection is bad now. the big markets differ a bit respectively like the selection is different in the sello than in myyrmämäki because they cater to yuppies and chavs differently.
