» Pogue’s Run Grocer (2828 E. 10th St.), Indy’s only co-op grocery store, is closing permanently on June 19. The board of directors announced the news this weekend in an email to the cooperative’s members. The letter blamed the closure on record-low sales and an inability to pay employees. Pogue’s Run opened on the east side of Indianapolis in 2010.
