Organic food store for family shopping

July 2002

We recently made an informed decision to only buy organic food for our family, and tried a few stores around. What we discovered is that in order to stay within organic food we have to go to several stores just to buy the most regular items: milk, bread, vegetables, fruits, breakfast cereal. Two questions I cannot figure out myself and want to ask to share with me:

1. Where can we find ''certified organic'' meat: beef, chicken, pork, turkey?

2. Is there a store that sells organic food in family-size packages, since those would make more economic sense for a family rather than buying multiple tiny pieces of cheese, for example?

Thank you for your advice. Maria

Recommendations received:

  • Berkeley Bowl (5)
  • El Cerrito Natural Grocery (3)
  • Full Belly Farms
  • Monterey Market
  • Planet Organic (2)
  • Trader Joe's
  • Whole Foods (2)

    Other advice:
    Also, check out the bulk bins at Whole Foods, Berkeley Bowl-- lots of items there are organic and much more economical than buying fancy 8 oz packages! Deborah
