Nature's Fare Markets - Penticton North

Owning and running a small business in Princeton, BC is a bit of a challenge at times, I appreciate having a large Nature's Fare Market to purchase Vegan and gluten free products at. The staff are always friendly and very helpful.

I am wondering why all the reviews for the former store of this location, Whole Foods, is still combined in here. Since Nature's Fare Market took it over it is not the same store nor does it stock all the same products as Whole Foods did. I miss all the bulk bins of organic spices, all the amazing varieties of pure essential oils, the abundance of fresh produce (now it is smaller with less to choose from). Having said that, now that this store is a Nature's Fare Market, it still offers many great products. This store is clean, offers competent, helpful staff and it's nice to know that this store stays open later than 6 pm. There is another Nature's Fare Market a few blocks south, which is smaller. So I find myself going between the two stores to find what I'm looking for. I think these two stores have great competition with Save-On Foods, who also offer great choices for organics, special needs foods ie. Gluten free, grain-free, dairy free, etc. I am price conscious and so I find I can purchase some of the same products for a lesser price at competitive grocery stores. But please take down the photos taken when it was Whole Foods. It's not the same store. EDIT: Now that this store has been operating many months and many renos taken place, including an eating area off to the side that offers a quick bite with sammies, salads, homemade healthy snacks and treats, I have noticed much more produce available, as well as a good quantity of essential oils. You'll be given senior's discounts every Wednesday and Thursday, and I've been to store wide Customer Appreciation Days a few times offering a 15% discount in all purchases. I am really enjoying all the organic produce available now. I've increased my review to 4 Stars with all these improvements. Very nice!

Favorite health food store, and great employees. Everyone is always friendly
