I love it!!!!It will be so convienient to stop there on my way back home from the city when I go. I just love the atmosphere and all the bulk bins. I have been ordering more from Azure Standard lately, and I am so into bulk items, getting stuff cheaper these days.

The whole tiem I was wondering if any of you mamas with slings were from here

I had my sling on

Anyone else here shop there?

I wish it was closer to us! But at least it is close to the highway so it's on my way home.

I'm just bored with Whole Foods.lol

I was just there! Was visiting my sister two weekends ago. I just turned her on to NT and she started going there with her WAPF shopping guide in hand. I'm jealous of you Californians who can buy raw milk in your stores!

Come to think of it, we went there yesterday too. If you saw a man wearing a baby in a kozy, that was probably DH

Not sure........I was there between 4-5 pm.

Sadiesmom--I will have to check out the cheese next time!I was kind of in a hurry to go home.We were at the discovery museum in Sausalito all afternoon and I was tired.

We drive there from Marin County to shop! It's so wonderful! We're vegan, and since it's a veggie store, the options are tremendous. It's so nice to go to a store where 90% of the produce is organic and where the workers really know all about their products.

I didn't actually live close to it; I was a short walk from the Daly City BART station when my teens were littles, and I'd wrestle my shopping cart on and off BART every week with a baby in a sling and a toddler either walking beside me or in and out of her Sara's Ride (carrier for toddlers) from 1989 until we moved to the country in 1998.

It was SO worth it! We have a pretty decent Co-Op here, considering the size of the town, but I still miss Rainbow. I never have been able to find that wonderful Natto Miso they have in bulk there with the strips of ginger. Mmm, that stuff was good!

That's so funny b/c we have had Rainbow for years in MN and they are just starting to redo them from being totally ghetto! I miss SF (from Sebastopol...here for 2 yrs) I miss CA shopping!

We were just in Florida for 2 weeks...so I was practically kissing the ground when we got back here!

I love having so many healthy products readily available here. I know I sure took it for granted!And everything at the Whole Foods in Florida was muy expensive.
