Mom's Organic Market

College Park area of MD: not the best area for health foodies. Enter MOM's - phew, breath of fresh, healthful air!

When you walk in, find all your produce cramped into a small area. Not a multitude of selection, but the basic ingredients you need, from beets to black radishes to bananas to apples to celery to garlic, you get the drill. All the basic produce is there. The prices are typical for organic produce in this area.

Keep walking, you will find many other choices for food, including your frozen items, cereals, canned goods, snacks, jams, baking ingredients, paper products, nondairy milks, refrigerated pre made foods, ice cream, raw foods, bulk bins, bulk herbs and the personal care/ medicinal stuff in the back.

Because it's so small, it's easy to just go down one row, then the next, then the last and be done. It's actually a convenient layout, but it's narrow. When it's really busy, it can be tough to navigate!

Like all MOM's, you can recycle some items here and sample some bread and random snacks in the aisles. Good stuff!

This store was my first introduction to a health food store, and with the employees support I've gone completely vegan. There are few things that you can't purchase from this store, and the customer service has always been outstanding. Everyone is very helpful answering questions. There are ready made sandwiches to go as well, if you are in a hurry. I highly recommend this store and all of the other stores of this small chain.

yes, this place is expensive...but it is not a conventional grocery store. They are all organic and try to get locally sourced, so the produce is usually very fresh and of good quality. very vegan friendly! They say that the brand name products they sell are priced lower than the same thing at whole foods but I've never bothered to verify that. Its a local company and they buy wind power. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

This place is waaay too expensive. But they do carry Spring Mill Bakery bread... heavenly.
