At Community Natural Foods, we’re deeply committed to supporting family farmers who prioritize certified organic practices and other sustainable growing methods.
For us, the health of the soil and the planet is paramount, and we believe that these practices are essential for creating a healthier future.
As strong advocates of organic farming and regenerative agriculture, we’re proud to say that our produce department is entirely organic, with a selection of wild, seasonal items that showcase the best of what nature has to offer.
Our dedication to organics isn’t just about what we sell—it’s about the relationships we’ve built over decades with the farmers who grow our food.
For over 25 years, our produce category manager, Frank Sarro, has personally visited our CNF Family Farmers, forging strong, direct connections with those who supply our stores. Buying direct from these farmers allows us to significantly reduce the distance from field to plate, ensuring fresher produce for our customers and a more sustainable supply chain.
These face-to-face interactions go beyond business; they deepen our relationships, creating opportunities to discuss the challenges farmers face and explore ways that Community Natural Foods can support them.
The farmers we partner with take immense pride in their work, and they’re grateful for the close relationships they have with retailers like us.
When you choose to purchase from our produce department, you’re not just buying food—you’re actively supporting organic, local farmers who are dedicated to sustainable practices and the long-term health of our planet. Together, we’re cultivating a future where quality, sustainability, and community go hand in hand.
