In the early 1970's, I became
concerned about the food I was eating--not only for my health, but also
because of the way it was grown and the harm it was causing to the
environment. I no longer wanted to eat food that was sprayed with herbicides
and pesticides. I started to shop for only organic
produce and food that wasn't so heavily processed. Additionally, I
made a choice not to use products that were tested on animals or that
were harmful to me or the environment. I started using only
cruelty-free cosmetics and household products that were safe for my home
and the world.
It
wasn't easy back then to find places that sold these types of products
and food, and for many years I traveled long distances to do my
shopping. I knew there was a need in this area for a store that
carried these kinds of products and foods, and in September 1993,
Annville Natural Market was born.
Today,
we provide our customers with natural organic foods and produce, the
finest vitamins and supplements and herbs, environmentally-friendly
household products and personal care items.
