Perth Amboy Farm
Owner: Taesup Chang
Opened: 1991
Cooperative: none
Location: 159 Smith St, Perth Amboy, NJ
Photographed: June 2020
Our second greengrocer in downtown Perth Amboy (see the first here). It's about 1200 square feet smaller than Casa de Frutas, placing it in the 3800 square foot range. Perth Amboy Farm is only about four years older than Casa de Frutas, but it feels so much older as it hasn't been renovated and might in fact be a much older store that was only taken over by the current owners in 1991.
To their credit, though, the outside looks very good. It seems to have been at least repainted much more recently than the interior was redone.
Unlike Casa de Frutas, this store really is only a greengrocer shop (other than a few types of basic groceries).
Our final Perth Amboy stop will be at the eastern edge of downtown near the water, about two and a half blocks east of this store. Head over to The Market Report tomorrow to check it out!
