A year ago, the only grocery store in Oxford, Kansas was shut down, turning the Sumner County city into a food desert. Today residents are celebrating the opening of a new grocery store, right where the old one stood. “It is a blessing to have one here” says Oxford resident Mary Robinson. Wednesday was the store’s grand opening. Providing relief for many people who live in Oxford. The city’s previous grocery store closed last year. Before today, townspeople had to travel upwards of 15 to 20 miles out of town, just to go to the grocery store.
