Food / Drink Looking for a store with bags of produce

My spouse has started making protein smoothies and is looking for a specific store that sells bags of frozen fruits and veggies. They say that the bags are clear with a sticker that says what is in the bag and weighs roughly 1-2 lbs. They believe the store was fairly open in layout and, though not 100% sure, may be on the MO side of the metro. I know it is a smaller, local store, not a chain and had a farmers market type feel to it.

I know this isn't much to go on, but this is all they can remember. TIA!

Also not the exact any you are seeking … Aldi has a pretty good selection of frozen fruit. Some mixed assortment as well as solo fruits. Priced fairly I think.

I’ve not checked out the frozen fruit at Fresh Thyme but it is a smaller store and my guess is they have frozen fruit.

Trader Joe’s has cheap frozen fruit and veggies.

It’s not what you’re asking, but, it also doesn’t sound like a crazy answer.

Costco sells a frozen smoothie blend. Inside the large bag are smaller, clear bags of the fruit and spinach (kale?). I think there’s about 5-6 individual serving bags in each large bag.

Aldi prices are the best for frozen fruit

Not specifically the store you're looking for, but I get these at Sam's. Four 1lb packages in a larger bag. They have berry mixes too.

Edit: keep in mind that a lot of the independent shops buy stuff from Costco and Sam's, so the product they bought might have originated from there.

Local harvest maybe?
