Previous Entry Flag Next EntryHi, I just joined the community.I'll be moving to Union County at the end of the month and I'm in search of the best places to get organic produce. So far I only know of the A&P in Kenilworth and the Shop Rite in Cranford.Anywhere else? Any farmer's markets? What about health food stores?And if there's an organic co-op that I can join that would be super wonderful!Thanks in advance :)

There's also a Trader Joe's in Westfield center.There's a ShopRite in Garwood that has a good organic selection.If you don't mind driving, there's a Wegman's in Woodbrige that has a desent selection of organics.Thanks so much!You're right, the ShopRite is in Garwood, not Cranford (I'm still learning the area). Ahhh, Wegman's! I think I've been to that one and I forgot about it :)No problem...I don't buy a lot of organic produce but I always look for it in the supermarket because my mother-in-law eats organic.Welcome to Union County...it's not as bad as most people will have you believe. :)Thanks for the welcome!I love it. I love the Lenape Trail :) We walk in the park in Cranford almost every Sunday morning. The people are really friendly and it's nice to see chipmunks and deer frolicing about and then return to your car and sit in traffic! ;) Yeah Westfield also has a Farmer's Market in the South side parking lot of the train station. It's on Saturdays I know, but I do not know if it runs all year or just seasonally. The Trader Joes is close by on the North Side in the downtown area.Thank-you! Unfortunately I work on Saturdays, but maybe by next spring I'll quit my second job and I'll be able to check it out. I like your cat :)
