THE HARLEM NATURAL FOOD CO-OP
is a not-for-profit member-owned and operated market and community
space open to the public.
Our MISSION is to improve
the quality of life of those who live, work and play in Harlem
by providing the highest quality organic produce, food, healthcare
items, bulk foods, and household products at a reasonable
price to support a healthy and balanced lifestyle. To create
and promote community through mutually-beneficial relationships
with local farms, businesses, and organizations that support
sustainable practices.
To provide the community with
a comprehensive education about optimum nutrition, creating
healthy lifestyles, understanding and practicing food safety,
seasonality, and sustainability.
In keeping with our mission,
we will be a vegetarian market focusing on organics and locally
produced goods. Our vision is to create a "wellness block"
that includes businesses that offer diversified services that
support a healthy lifestyle such as:
- A Yoga Center
- Holistic Health Practitioners
(colon therapists, acupuncturists, homeopaths, nutritionists)
- Dance/Exercise Studio
- Natural Beauty Practitioners
- Massage Therapists
We are presently working with
community leaders, businesses and organization to make this
happen.
"A New Path in Harlem" has
arrived. There is something for the entire family and community
to gain from being a part of this venture. Harlem is on the
move and its long-standing citizens and new arrivals have
a bright and glorious future ahead.
