It's a co-op of several local businesses. One is a bakery where I got some caramel popcorn and the best graham crackers I've ever eaten.
There's also the Good Bottle Refill shop where they have all kinds of soaps and cleaning products in bulk and you can either bring your own container to fill or you can buy a reusable container from them.
I bought a few presents from some of the other areas as well. Fun place to visit and there are a couple of municipal lots within a block or two.
Nice - I noticed it the other day - looks great from the outside:
General Store Cooperative‘s flagship cafe and marketplace, think “mini-Chelsea Market,” hosts a variety of locally-owned businesses under its roof, including Good Bottle Refill Shop, Three Daughter’s Baking Co., Love Where You Live by Mrs. Meshugga, The Maplewood Wheelhouse, and an outpost for South Orange favorites Kitchen a la Mode and Sadie’s.
I removed it for you. Unfortunately - I think i x'd out another one by accident.

Red X did not appear. An X did appear but it would not accept a "click."
I got powdered laundry detergent I very much like. Very concentrated, so only needs 1 tablespoon per load. I brought an old container and now I don't have to go through single-use plastic jugs for ever. They also have bulk food, haven't tried that yet!
So there's a neat new store on Springfield Ave half a block from Prospect. It's called the General Store Cooperative. Right next to East Side Fitness.
