100% organic. 100% of the time.

All of the produce at Whole Earth Center is sourced from certified organic farms. We have longstanding relationships with many of our local farmers and know them well. We purchase our produce from local farmers that prize heirloom varietals and sustainable farming. We buy the best of what’s in season. 

What is local?

We define local as within a 150 mile radius of the Whole Earth Center and buy the finest organic produce from farmers in New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania and New York. Produce from local farms is marked with a yellow sign in our produce department.

Baked from Scratch Every Day

Our bakers start with organically-grown whole grain flours. From there - and from scratch - they use organic sugar, local honey, maple syrup and molasses to bake up a wide variety fresh breads and desserts.  Our breads include our signature Whole Earth sandwich bread, challah, non-yeasted brown rice bread, and many more. The bakery case is filled with fresh muffins, scones, macaroons, cookies, cakes, cupcakes, pie by the slice and a selection of vegan desserts.

* While all of it is delicious, it is not all gluten-free, nut-free, or vegan. All items are made in a kitchen that processes gluten, nuts and dairy.

Everything you need. Nothing you don’t.

Whole Earth Center is a full service grocery store.  We offer a full selection of packaged goods, including many vegan, raw foods, paleo and gluten-free choices.

We carefully select the products we offer by scrutinizing every label, every ingredient and every source.  We follow strict guidelines to ensure the products on our shelves do not contain artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, or sweeteners. We do not carry items made with bromated or bleached flours, high fructose corn syrup, trans fats or artificial fats.

No GMO

We do not source products that contain the top five ingredients most likely to contain GMO, including corn, soy, and canola. We search for products with the Non-GMO Project Verified seal.  Whole Earth Center was an early adopter of the Non-GMO Project and helps to fund the project every year,  because we believe you have a right to know what is in the products we offer. As the industry evolves, so do we.  Staying on the cutting edge of food industry issues and the latest information about our food supply allows us to keep our customers in-the-know and our shelves stocked with high-quality foods.

Bringing Small Local Producers to Market

Our economy was built on small producers. We’re building on that tradition by carrying a selection of products from small local producers. We welcome small local food producers to submit their products for consideration. Learn more.

Our highly knowledgeable and trained staff applies rigorous standards in choosing the best in homeopathic and herbal remedies, vitamins, supplements and essential oils.

Our cosmetics and personal care products are cruelty free with no synthetic fragrances and fall within the guidelines of the Environmental Working Group (EWG).  We carry a wide variety of hair care, dental care, and skin care products, sunscreen, soaps, and more.

We turn to our local producers for a wonderful selection of eggs, yogurts, milk and small-farm artisanal cheeses. We import additional organic cheeses from Italy. When it comes to dairy, our focus is on grass-fed, antibiotic- and hormone-free products.
