Info: The oldest health food store in the metro Detroit area. The space is small but stocks a range or products including supplements, organic produce, grocery items, and books. Many vegetarian and vegan items. Will place special orders. Find some local specialty items in the coolers that are hard to find such as Greta's Ginger Juice. Free parking spots in the alley behind the store. Open Mon-Sat 9am-8pm, Sun 11am-5pm.

Review: I believe the current hours are 9am-8pm M-Sat and 11am-5pm on Sunday. There are 5-6 free parking spots in the back, right up against the back of the building, and you have to turn into the alley off of 2nd street to get to them. I'd say over half of the store is filled with supplements, and only 3 small freezers with frozen goods plus a couple coolers for other perishable groceries in addition to a few aisles of dry goods.

About the only reason I stop in here is for the frozen falafels (the brand name escapes me, but they really are the best you can buy and few places carry them) plus the greta's ginger juice (call to see if it is in stock first, though) and vegan donuts that I can't find anywhere else nearby since Good Food closed.

They have some kind of frequent customer card, where a purchase over $50 gets you a punch, and when you've reached a certain number of punches, you get a gift certificate (similar to the program at the Natural Food Patch in Ferndale.)

Not sure if I would ever do all of my grocery shopping here, but you can find most vegan items you need for baking. Check the snack items carefully before buying (bags of chips, snack bars, etc.) because they tend to sit on the shelf a long time to the point where some items are past their "best by" date and are stale.
