We are committed to fresh food grown organically, farming toxin-free food without GMO’s. We are striving to make conscious purchasing decisions for our own families and our community. Conscious buying for conscious shoppers. 100% community-owned! Just one minute South of Duncan!

 

Our Mission:

Our mission is to be ambassadors for the planet while building community and encouraging good health, unity and resilience. We proudly offer a huge selection of high quality organic, non-GMO, ethically and locally sourced products in a unique market-style shopping environment. We embrace diversity, encourage conversations and celebrate our differences. Thank you so much for your continued support, your open hearts and your patronage.

 

Our Roots:

We were founded in 1993 on an organic biodynamic farm in Glenora by Octavia and Christoph Altemueller. Our first store front was a few hundred square feet with one employee. In 2023 we are celebrating 30 years of service to our community. With a team of over 30 staff and a membership of over 20,000 customers, we remain humbly committed to the founding principles on which we were started. It is a privilege to serve our community and we look forward to the next phase of “becoming” what the future might be asking from us.

 

Gratitude:

From the very core of our hearts we thank you for choosing organic and invite you to join our quest for health and conscious living. Ideas, suggestions, expressions of support can be directed to our leadership team at operations@communityfarmstore.ca.
