(page 1 of 2)
Eating natural—it’s better for you and now, thanks to several local markets, is easy as organic pie.
When regulars walk into Harvest Market, they go straight for the bulk grains and flours and nuts, the fresh local meats and poultry. “They know you’re never going to reach the peak of optimal health if you’re eating processed food,” owner Bob Kleszics says. “That’s why we encourage people to eat from scratch, so they’re controlling everything that goes into their bodies.”
That means no side effects that pesticides, preservatives and chemicals might induce. Whether you’re looking for seten, spelt or tofu, or foods from popular natural-organic brands, these markets can sell you the goods and teach you how to prepare them.
The bakery and juice bar at Francine’s (6949 Lancaster Pike, Hockessin, 239-3737) are worth the trip, but the shop also has organic produce from local farms, meals to-go and cooking classes.
With one of the largest selections at the beach, Garden Market (14 Midway Shopping Center, Rehoboth Beach, 645-8052) offers herbal teas, healthy snacks, drinks and organic groceries.
Just-picked organic fruits and berries are a specialty at Good Earth Market (RR2, Clarkesville, 537-7100), which also sells organic products, coffees, teas, and even natural beauty products and earth-friendly cleaning supplies.
The staff is passionate and knowledgeable at Good For You Natural Market (28841 Lewes-Georgetown Highway, Lewes, 684-8330), a one-stop natural and organic shop.
At Good News Natural Foods (739 S. Governors Ave., Dover, 730-1910), wheat-free and gluten-free products, fresh-dried herbs and spices, protein drinks and bars reign supreme.
Harvest Market Natural Food (7417 Lancaster Pike, Hockessin, 234-6779) employs a registered nurse for free consultations. It stocks an abundance of organic, local and natural products.
