Now it's time to move out to the eastern part of Massachusetts! We're going to pass through this area pretty quickly, since this is an area I have relatively little coverage in. We'll start by returning to eastern Rhode Island with a look at stores in Pawtucket, north of Providence, and then a couple small stores in Providence and in the Newport area. From Newport, we'll travel to the southeastern coast of Massachusetts for stops in Fall River and Westport (roughly halfway between Fall River and New Bedford). Then we'll see just one store on Cape Cod all the way at the tip, in Provincetown, before returning to the mainland for Middleboro, Raynham, Taunton, and Norton. There's a lot of very, very different supermarkets throughout this area that we'll be checking out, so it should be fun. And then, it's off to Brockton for some pretty extensive coverage of the stores there. Just FYI, some of these stores are relatively late additions to the schedule so we...
ALDI Food Market Opened: 2020 Owner: ALDI Sud Previous Tenants: assorted non-grocery tenants Cooperative: none Location: 321 Speen St, Natick, MA Photographed: May 17, 2022 Our last stop in the Framingham area is a very quick look at the ALDI in Natick, practically just across the street from yesterday's Wegmans .

And a note on what's to come: we're about 15 miles west of Boston here, but before we move into the Boston area, we're going to turn south for a look at the southeastern corner of Massachusetts (and we'll briefly return to Rhode Island for a handful of stores). Come back tomorrow to read all about it!
