What's New at The Healthy Grocer?

Mineral Fusion Makeup Collection
Mineral Fusion is here and ready for you to have fun picking your colors. This mineral based line is free of gluten, parabens, SLS, phthalates, artificial colors and synthetic fragrances. Products are 100% Vegetarian, and most are even 100% Vegan.
 
In the past, we have lined our shelves with a few Badger lip balms.  But look out - we've expanded the brand in our personal care section!  Look for baby/infant lotions, balms, sunscreens and much more.
 

We have made some changes to our Supplement department.  Green foods and Super Fruits are now located in aisle 3A near the herbs and medicinal teas.  Healthy Blood Sugar Support and Weigh Management has moved to aisle 2B near vitamins.  Stay tuned for an expanded Protein Powders section.  
 
Big news - We now carry pasteurized Goat's milk and yogurt from Oak Knoll Dairy!  Oak Knoll Dairy Farm is a Vermont Grade A commercial dairy bottling goats’ milk and yogurt. The 160 acre farm, on the banks of the Connecticut River, has been conserved since 1998 with the Upper Valley Land Trust, a non-profit agency that preserves farmland, forests and wetland in the Connecticut River Valley.Oak Knoll Dairy is owned and managed by George Redick and Karen Lindbo, a husband and wife team. The humane care of their goats is always number one.
