In the grocery aisles
A yogurt for every body

You know that advice to eat like your grandparents for optimal health? Well, yogurt has helped nourish and sustain cultures around the globe for millennia, delivering protein and calcium with each spoonful, not to mention those famous active cultures that promote healthier digestion and improve nutrient absorption. Resolve to add more culture to your day and explore our variety, whether it’s goat’s milk yogurt from Redwood Hill Farm, locally made yogurt from Grace Harbor Farms, soy yogurt from Wildwood, coconut milk yogurt from So Delicious or any of our other two dozen-plus options.

In the meat case
Get lean with turkey

Keep your resolution to eat lean protein with our moist, flavorful turkey raised by Diestel Family Turkey Ranch in Sonora, Calif. Cooking with our freshly ground turkey is easy; just substitute it where you would use ground beef — in chili, meatloaf, lasagna and more. We offer other meats ground in-store as well, including grass-fed, organic and all-natural beef options, Northwest pasture-raised lamb and local, sustainably raised pork.
