Anyone from Seattle?

Being a working mother of two Im looking to save time while shopping (wouldn’t we all, lol).

I have a few questions regarding where to shop. Do we have a store in the city the focuses on raw? I have always shoped at PCC, Trader Joes, Whole Foods and Super Supplements but as you know many of the raw items are sprinkled throughout.

I am new to being raw and would love to find a store where they have a section dedicated to the raw diet. It will cut down on trying to find all that Im in search of. Any suggestions?

  • Fabulous! Thanks for the information :)

    BTW Beany, I love love love Chaco Canyon. If you see an black betty cruiser out front with pink flames and a black basket, chances are thats ME (most likely with a ATS sandwich in hand)

    Branwyn32 – We have loads of room in Seattle. Move on in :)

    Cheers! l.

  • I live in Seattle and I heard there is a raw store/small restaurant opening on Roosevelt in the U-district. It is called generation thrive or something like that. I’m really excited for it to open!

    BTW-I also love Chaco Canyon! I was actually offered a job there, but had to turn it down because it wasn’t enough hours. :(

  • Thats right! The new place on 65th & Roosevelt (across from Suede Salon). Yay! I forgot about that :)

  • Oh, and you mentioned Trader Joe’s. I work there (the one in the u-district) and accidently discovered that the cashews are genuinely raw. They sprout at least, so I think they must be. The organic valencia almonds there are also raw (and sprout), but the non-organic “raw” almonds aren’t really raw. They also carry raw hazelnuts, pecans, and sunflower seeds. Occasionally they also have raw almond butter for $5 a jar! (I don’t know if it is genuinely raw though)

  • Raw Vegan Source! It truly is the best. They have alot of raw stuff, from prpared things in the deli case to books, everything. Plus Tom and Susan are so kind, I brought my non raw boyfriend and my son with me and we chatted about all kinds of interesting things. Tom gave us all samples of all kinds of goodies. It was really fun. Another thing is they are always having all kinds of events. I'm going on the 19th to Cherie Soria's book tour. Just get there you won't be sorry.

    Thrive is trying to raise up enough money to open, I've been to one of the gala's. The food was awesome. Next time they have an event you should come. It's kinda like the community is the "investors" instead of stockholders. The whole community is supporting them and cheering for them to open.
