As one of the largest independent, family-owned health food stores in the Greater Hartford area, we offer you a true oasis for learning and achieving optimal wellness: cutting-edge information; caring service; and an abundant variety of affordable natural products. Michael Dworkin, PD, CCN, a Connecticut Certified Clinical Nutritionist & Registered Pharmacist (1928-2017), was our founder. He started serving our community in 1956 as a pharmacist in his Liggett-Rexall Pharmacy. In 1970, we transitioned to a full-service health food store. Our knowledgeable staff now includes our owner, Erika Dworkin, who is Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition®, and our store manager, Kyle Ledonne, a Culinary Nutritionist. You’ll love our almost 7000 items, which include vitamins, herbs, homeopathy, sports supplements, natural body care, gluten- and other allergen-free foods, books, and green cleaners. To make living a healthy lifestyle easier and more affordable, we provide you with every day discounts on many of our high quality leading national brands and a well-loved Loyalty Card with rewards points. Erika offers nutrition consultations by appointment.
