When you embrace a whole food plant-based diet, you open the door to a wide range of foods and ingredients you may not find in your local grocery store.
Our favorite places to shop include farmer's markets (for fresh produce and locally-produced, minimally-processed foods), our local food co-op, Asian and international markets, and national chains like Whole Foods, Natural Grocers and Trader Joe's.
If you can't find what you're looking for there -- or if your town doesn't have stores like these -- you can buy many plant-based food products online. Here's a selection of foods we enjoy, available online.
