All Portland-area Bales and Lambs Thriftway grocery stores are closing

The large Lamb’s Thriftway Marketplace sign was removed from the front of the building in June, 2018 for repainting and renaming the store to be Garden Home Marketplace. The store continues to host the florist, liquor store, the Post Office, Wells Fargo Bank, and the Garden Home Growlers. The Growler section has grown beyond the first assigned space inside the main door and now flows into the former floral department with six tables.

We work hard to make sure you always enjoy shopping with us. Last week, KPTV reported that the Aloha and Cedar Mill stores would be closing. Employees at those stores said they had not yet received word about when the stores would officially close their doors. An employee who answered the phone at the Lake Oswego Palisades Market Place said that store was set to close on Oct. 13. Northwest Portland includes the Pearl District, Old Town Chinatown, the Northwest District, and various residential and industrial neighborhoods.

Forrest Lamb first built and opened the Garden Home Thriftway in 1957. The store and the mall store buildings were owned by Forrest and Neva Lamb and then by their three sons, Bob, Gary and Colin Lamb. Bob Lamb sold the business of the grocery store in June of 2015. Colin Lamb retains ownership of the grocery building and the mall complex. The Largest City in Oregon and the 23rd largest city in the U.S.

Mike Babbitt, store manager for Garden Home Market Place, said the large Garden Home store where he has worked for just two months shy of 25 years would close by Oct. 19. There used to be an “Oregon Electric” pizza place located within the store. I hope the large railway pictures that were once on the walls are still there.
