Fresh, Delicious Food From Neighbors Who Share Our Values
We’re passionate about working with local farmers and suppliers along the East Coast to support our communities, help our planet, and bring you the best from close to home.
We work with a network of 400 family farms and suppliers to bring you Near Our Stores products that meet the growing demand for fresh, organic, sustainably grown food. When you shop Near Our Stores products, you’re getting seafood that’s responsibly sourced, meats that are humanely raised, and produce that’s so fresh because it didn’t have far to travel. Together, we’re helping our communities and our planet thrive, which is something we can all be proud of.

Working with us since 1983
Bob Fowler, along with JD and Austin, are the fifth and sixth generations to tend to their heritage acres, planted in 1858. They are committed to growing great-tasting, nutritious apples, and we’ve proudly partnered with them since 1983 to supply fall’s favorite fruit.
MEAT
Bell & Evans
Fredericksburg, PA
Working with us since 2009
Bell & Evans is a family farm that’s raising chickens right. From hatch to harvest, they invest in superior care and animal welfare, and their commitment to excellence doesn’t end there. “We’re the only hatchery in the world where chickens have water and organic feed waiting for them as soon as they chip out of the shell,” says Scott Sechler, Jr.
We believe this kind of care is why their chicken is the best-tasting you’ll ever enjoy—and we’re not alone. Bell & Evans chicken consistently wins awards for its distinctively fresh taste and juicy texture.
