Hoover-based Organic Harvest Grocery will open a new location in downtown Birmingham early this summer.

The market will open in the historic Parisian building on 1924 2nd Avenue North. This will be downtown Birmingham's second grocery store.

The original Organic Harvest Grocery opened in 2005 on Montgomery Highway in Hoover.

A second location was announced in 2016 for the Village at Brocks Gap shopping center in Hoover. The company said that location is still forthcoming.

According to Organic Harvest, a new unnamed group purchased the company in late 2017 and has plans for "immediate growth.

"Our vision for Organic Harvest is to take healthy options to handful of new communities as soon as possible, new Chief Executive Officer Michael Maddox said in a statement. "We are ready to take what we do at the Organic Harvest in Hoover to new locations and to reach more people."

In addition to offering healthy food and groceries, the new downtown market will offer wine and craft beer, as well as a cafe serving smoothies, sandwiches, salads, juices, coffee and "grab-and-go" selections.

"We are tremendously excited about our location in downtown Birmingham," Maddox said. "This new store will give Birmingham residents a place to get healthy, high-quality goods and products without leaving the city limits."

Organic Harvest will highlight the history of the Parisian building in its downtown location and pay homage to its neighborhood and neighbors, including Alabama Theater and Lyric Theater.

The company has hired Birmingham architecture firm Poole & Associates.

Organic Harvest will "preserve pieces" of the original building while also adding a "modern yet comfortable look and feel," the company said.

"It's going to be a beautiful store. We want to create a welcoming environment for everyone in and around that location, as well as a hub for healthy lifestyles," Maddox said.
