A $3.5 million purchase in Mount Joy Township is this week's Lancaster County property transaction with the highest price tag. 

Blessings of Hope made the $3,500,000 purchase. A sales agreement for the same price was signed last fall for the former Darrenkamp’s grocery store in Mount Joy Township. At the 52,000-square-foot former grocery store property at 189 Ridgeview Road South, Blessings of Hope would operate a food processing and dehydration center alongside a ministry selection center like the one it opened last February at the former Treasures Market in Lancaster city, according to LNP | LancasterOnline archives.  A food dehydration center would be a new service for the Warwick Township-based Blessings of Hope, which has been rapidly expanding on the strength of numerous volunteers who help take fresh but unwanted food that’s destined for the landfill and reroute it to food banks, churches and other charities.

Blessings of Hope plans expansion to Elizabethtown with $3.5M purchase of former Darrenkamp's grocery store

 

Blessings of Hope officials said in August they plan to invest $8 million to $10 million in the new Mount Joy Township location. The property was owned by Dave Sweigart, a Mount Joy Township supervisor whose family put up the building in 1996 for Ridgeview Farms Market, a grocery store they opened adjacent to their dairy farm and an existing dairy and ice cream shop. After running their own grocery store for a decade, the Sweigarts closed Ridgeview Farms Market and began leasing the space to Redner’s Warehouse Market. Soon after Redner’s closed, Darrekamp’s opened its own grocery store on the property in 2017, a store that was then closed in November 2018 when Darrenkamp’s closed all four of its stores in the region.
