Good day beautiful people! I am happy say in a few hours, 6 hours to exact, that Earth Fare at Emory Point will officially be open. I, being not so familiar with store, was excited to be invited to a preview tour of their new location.
We were given a great deal of information and samples along the way. Here are your Cliff notes. (quiz to follow)
•Earth Fare was founded in 1975 in Asheville, North Carolina. It is the authentic specialty organic and healthy grocery store. Emory Point is Earth Fare’s 37th store.
•Earth Fare has the highest standards for what goes on their shelves. Which means: No High-Fructose Corn Syrup, No artificial fats or artificial trans fats, No artificial colors, No artificial flavors, No artificial preservatives, No artificial sweeteners, No antibiotics or synthetic growth hormones in their fresh meat and dairy, and No bleached or bromated flour.
This makes me happy! Knowing that the labels have been checked before getting to the shelves made me a fan. I am a label reader and I get tired of reading artificial this, artificial that, high fructose corn syrup! Make it go away! Bravo Earth Fare for having such high standards! Bravo!
• Earth Fare support locally grown and produced products. Look for the red signage that read Local to find Georgia grown products. Local supplies include Spingler Mountain Farm Chicken, Terrapin Beer Company, Lettuce Buy Local salad mixes, and Tessamae’s All Natural Dressings.
•Earth Fare carries a nice variety of Health and Wellness products. Including those that are organic, vegan, and cruelty free.
•Earth Fare will steam your seafood for free! Nice!
•Earth Fare has a very nice selection of bulk products that include nuts, beans, various healthy snacks. I tried the tried the chocolate covered ginger. So good!

Nice article!
My favorite local product would have to be pastured eggs.
The eggs taste wonderfully and I feel great knowing that they are hormone and grain free and come from certified organic farms.
Thank You!
I love pastured eggs as well! You can definitely taste the difference.
Fun to see another Atlanta blogger…and your hair is absolutely beautiful!
I’ve never been to this neighborhood because I live in the burbs, but I think it is fun to visit grocery stories like this and Whole Foods because of the more local vibe 🙂
Thank You! It’s a great store definitely visit if you’re ever in the area!
Make it go away! I enjoy knowing what is in the foods I buy. I can’t wait to get over there, The photos are awesome make me wanna go right now. Peace.
This place sounds wonderful. My daughter is working in Atlanta for a few weeks so I have tweeted this to her so that she can go check it out.
Great post! I visited this morning too.
I love Annie’s products!
My favorite vegan product would be the maple cream cookies at Earth Fare. Those cookies will change your life.

I love local Atlanta yogurts !
I love Larabars. They are vegan and make a great snack.
Yay for Asheville! I recently visited for the first time in my life, and I adore that town! ❤ I really need to check out Earth Fare–I ended up passing by one when I was in Huntersville, but didn't get a chance to check it out!
