Earth Fare, an NC-based natural food grocer, plans to open a total of six grocery stores in the Charlotte area. Four stores are already open to the public including SouthPark, Ballantyne, Fort Mill and Rock Hill. The remaining two stores in Concord and Davidson are slated to open by Spring 2021 or earlier.

Earth Fare customers ordering groceries online via Instacart may request a Natural Awakenings magazine by scrolling to the bottom and selecting “Add a special request”, typing “Natural Awakenings magazine” and in Instructions, “Free magazine by exit door or café”. Magazines are available at all locations to in-store shoppers as well.

According to the website, the Earth Fare vision is “to reestablish stores in communities across the Southeast” with “the renewed mission to improve lives by making healthy food available to everyone and bringing our unique Food Philosophy back to the communities we serve.”
