We Are Environmentalists We believe that environmental destruction and climate change are the biggest problems facing humankind today. We believe that in leading by example we can protect and restore the environment. By instituting best practices to reduce our impact on the environment, and by educating staff and customers, we are influencing customers, employees, and many other businesses. We choose organic products whenever possible. We stock an overall higher percentage of organic items than any other major grocery chain and sell only certified organic produce. We buy local whenever possible. This reduces the amount of fuel used to transport products, supports small business and boosts the local economy.
