Help Reopen — or Even Save — Our Beloved Local Health Food Store

Dear friends, neighbors, and health-conscious community members,
After decades of serving our community with organic groceries, natural supplements, and old-fashioned customer care, our cherished local health food and vitamin store is facing closure. But there's hope — and with your help, maybe even a miracle.

The dedicated employees who’ve helped run this store for years are stepping up to carry the legacy forward in a new location — or possibly buy the store itself from the current owner to preserve the original space.

Your support could be the key to keeping this vital community resource alive.

Why This Store Matters
This isn’t just any health food store. It's a gathering place. A trusted source of advice. A haven for wellness. It’s our community. Whether you’ve come in for clean snacks, immune support, a chat about herbal remedies, or just a familiar face — you know the importance and comfort of this space.
Over the years, we've supported:

  • Customers seeking natural healing options
  • Local farmers and ethical suppliers
  • Wellness education for all ages
  • A welcoming and truly caring space for healthy living

What Comes Next — Two Possibilities
Due to rising rent and a change in building ownership, the current store is set to close. But we’re not giving up. The employees (yes, the same ones you know and love!) are working toward two options:

1. Open a new, people-powered location rooted in the same old-school values
2. OR — if funding allows — buy the store from the owner and keep it right where it is
Either way, the mission stays the same: keep this wellness hub alive for our community.

How You Can Help
We’re raising $150,000 to help cover:

  • Securing a new location — or buying the current store if it becomes viable
  • Moving and setting up fixtures
  • Restocking inventory
  • Licensing, permits, and early operating costs

Every donation, no matter the size, brings us closer to our goal — whether it's a fresh start or a saved legacy.

Ways to Support
  • Donate: Any amount helps!
  • Share: Tell your friends, neighbors, and fellow health lovers.
  • Send your prayers and good thoughts: We truly believe in the power of positive energy.
  • Stay connected: We’ll keep you updated on which path becomes possible — and when we’ll reopen.

Thank you for believing in community, wellness, and the power of local businesses.

With gratitude,
Rhiannon & the NewTrition Unlimited team.
