June is all about Non-GMO's
This month at Kimberton Whole Food we will be highlighting the many non genetically modified products we carry to help you make healthy choices for you and your family!
95% of Kimberton Whole Foods produce is organic and/or local, with no GMO use, but packaged and refrigerated foods are also carefully researched to make sure that GMO foods do not reach our shelves!
Visit this month's sales flyer to see several featured non-GMO products we carry.
Purchase a Poster for a Good Cause
Kimberton Whole Foods will be conducting a fundraiser in May and June with the help of Grid Magazine to benefit PASA's Brownback Scholarship Fund. The fund allows young/new organic farmers to attend the Farming for the Future conference and classes free of charge each year. 18x24 full color posters of the above pictured 'Mother Nature' KWF poster will be available for sale at $25 each to raise donations for the scholarship fund. Posters can be purchased at any of our locations, or can be made in the coming weeks by visiting Grid Magazine's online store (coming soon)! This 'Mother Nature' poster was specially commissioned for Kimberton Whole Foods by local artist, Kirsten Harper.

Staff Favorites
Colleen - Financial Anaylst's Top Five Favorites!
1) "I love, love, love The Ginger People products. I think I have tried every one we carry. The ginger sesame marinade is my favorite; I could drink it straight from the bottle.
2) I also am crazy about Kalona sour cream. It is so thick and creamy; yum. Plus totally organic.
3) The Raincoast Crisps are another favorite. I bought a whole case for parties. People love to come to my house!
4) I was thrilled to discover Country Choice Vanilla Sandwhich Creme Cookies. They are the best sandwhich cremes anywhere. (I know, I have tried them all.) These are like the vanilla creme cookies the Girl Scouts used to sell in the 1960's, only healthier. Eating them makes me nostalgic and....makes my tummy happy. This is a high praise from a person who generally hates store bought cookies.
5) To round out my top five favorites, I pick Vermont Bread Potato Rolls. They are so buttery tasting. And I'm German and Irish, so potatoes in any form are a pleasure."
