What better way to celebrate Earth Day than at the Abundance Food Co-Ops RocWorthy Earth Fest! Abundance received an upgrade, and has moved to a brand new location right in the South Wedge neighborhood. The festival kicked off with the Earth Day parade marching down South Ave. to Abundance. I loved that this parade featured a lot of different people in fruit and vegetable outfits, which reminded me of an after-school special of School House Rock. It was cool marching with a celery stalk while people where honking their horns along South Ave, as I wanted to get a Bloody Mary right after. Once we arrived at Abundance, we were greeted by a live band with tons of vendors. These healthy supporters where giving away a TON of free swag like WAYO 104.3 tossing out free tee-shirts. Inside, the new Abundance expanded to include more of an open-space layout inside. I loved all the food vendors inside offering you free samples of cherries, soap, and gourmet meats/cheeses. The mark-up for these organic/vegan/healthy products are extremely HIGH. This is not the type of food market I would go to on a regular basis, just when I need something I cant find anywhere else in a pinch. Have a date with a Vegan? Send them to Abundance where you can pick them up a specialty made Vegan TV dinner- YUMMIES! Also keep in mind; this is one of the only markets where you will be able to find an extended collection of nut butter flavors. Sometimes you feel like a nut, and other times you just are, either way Abundance will have your nuts covered! Overall: Amazing Earth Day Celebration, Healthy Organic Choices, HIGH Prices, The Fruity Parade, Nut Butter, Tons of Samples, and a Celery Stalk...I Will Be Back.

Love buying at a cooperatively run store w several local products. They are visionary and working to compete w the growing natural food selections available. They now sell meat and have some basic "value priced" items. Staff are helpful and usually friendly, but can be hard to track down sometimes. Also, sale and clearance items may not be rung up correctly, so be sure to check your receipt. Speaking of, receipts have no BPA in them. I have suggested they post that good news!

I recently moved here from a large city with many co-ops/organic groceries. I am so happy I found this place! They have great local dairy, produce, and meat and many other natural products, including bulk goods. I love it!! I love going to a real co-op instead of a big chain grocery store devoted to Organic (whole foods, anyone?). The staff are great and the prices fair. Definitely the best option in Rochester. :-) Support Local!!

Abundance is amazing! This small cute store has everything my family needs, and its pretty much the only place I shop. Great deals on bulk foods and really friendly, helpful staff. The prices are great, especially considering that almost all produce is organic--and a lot of it is local when the season is right!

I have been a shareholder for a long time and continue to be impressed by the quality of the products sold at Abundance. There is no better crunchy peanut butter in the Rochester area. The salespeople are friendly and knowledgeable. And there is always something on sale...that I need!

I love going here to see what is available. The food is non-GMO, and many local and special finds. The prices are a little high, but still very reasonable. I wish they could carry more inventory, but they pack a lot of store into one convenient, cozy owner operated coop.

There is a fantastic bulk section. They even have liquids in bulk like soap, detergent, jelly, peanut butter, etc. Plus they carry products that take jar returns like yogurt and orange juice. I can do my shopping here without creating any packaging waste.

A must for anyone trying to eat organic. A far better selection of products at significantly lower prices than the grocery store.

The only place to get Soyboy 4 lb. blocks of firm tofu. The price is one of the best values in the store.
