A friend recommended this market to us as we were new to the area.We were pleased with the items we found. The store is clean and the staff are polite and were helpful with answering questions and showing us were specific items were located.

I like this store because its small and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Also, it reminds me of Sevenanda in Atlanta which was my go to health food store for the same reason!

The employees in this “health” food store don’t believe in wearing masks. When I was there the other day not one of them was wearing a mask. When asked about it one of them replied, “ It’s not mandated.” Meanwhile, Covid is rampant in this area, and one would think that they would have some decency and common sense and care enough about their customers to wear a mask. They’re lost a good customer.

Great store for vegans or culinary specialty items like seaweed for rolling sushi or bulk buy items like chai, sesame seed and carob treats. Smells really good too.

At Ocala store,, Unable to price match “. against walmart because I cant pick up the product and have to order online in order to.present to them a receipt of purchase. They do not price match with online stores! But it is 10 dollars less in Walmart. Incredible. I need to call back tomorrow to talk to a manager. After I write to corporate of course!!Yes I did go speak to the manager Brian, and he explained I need a receipt or picture of the product in store. I did see it on their web page but I would need to order online and online price match is not accepted. It is the same product is my point. The product is Solaray Turmeric Root extract advanced formula, they sell for 16 and 18 dollars versus 28 at this store. Almost 50% less.

Prices are fairly reasonably and you can find things here that you would typically get at a Whole Foods Store. Its a clean store with helpful and friendly staff.

I visited this store weekly to purchase loose leaf spearmint tea. It is the only store in the area you can get it, and I went in a month ago and saw the jar was empty. I asked an associate if there was any more to restock, and she said she wasnt sure and had to ask. She came back and told me they were out and to call back in the morning. I called back in the morning and asked if they restocked when the associate on the phone asks me, Are you sure you purchase it here? I cant even find the jar for that tea...... I said yea, I am sure I go to the same store every week and purchase this type of tea. She then transferred me to a manager who told me the person I was just speaking to misinformed me and they must have not gotten a restock. I have called 5 times since then, a month ago, and no one ever knows what is going on with this product or if it will ever be restocked. I understand suppliers and issues with suppliers are out of the stores control, but the unfamiliarity I have experienced every time I call and go into the store is beyond me. I went into the store yesterday for another product, and the spearmint tea jar is still sitting on the shelf empty. I finally ordered a bunch of it online since the store clearly has no idea when they will get it back or even take the empty jar off the shelf.

Enjoyed finding this gem on our drive from Fort Lauderdale to Tulsa, ok. They were very friendly and did not get ridiculous looks for not wearing a mask, like many places. The whole town was very cute.

I would love to be able to give 5 stars but not at this time. First there are some positives: Wonderful selection of food and the store is nice and clean. Another positive is Josie! She is the perfect example of how an employee should represent a company. She consistently displays enthusiasm for her job. What a winning personality! It’s her keen sense of what hospitality is within the realm of true customer relations that sets her apart. She is the ONLY one there I can praise because she doesn’t act like the customer is there to serve her. She acts like it’s a joy to her to serve the customer. Attitude is everything and she has it all with her winning attitude. I’ve observed other employees’ interactions with customers....including my own experiences, and in my opinion, they just don’t shine like Josie. Again, they need to follow Josie’s example and be a shining star especially in a health food store!😊

Great selection and deli. They order a fresh salad bar which has many favorite items. They have steroid free beef and a nice selection in the deli. Hot food is available and seating to enjoy a healthy alternative for lunch. They have a juicer and can make some fantastic beverages. The Vegan selection throughout the store is amazing and their gluten free offerings are plentiful. A great place to shop to meet your dietary needs.

I like coming here for my grains, produce and natural medicine. I am usually pleased with the prices of the produce and most times its very nice looking. They have organic grains which is nice to have a place close by for that.

This has become my new favorite market. I didnt even have a chance to try everything that I wanted. However, it is a beautiful little place with an amazing deli and salad bar and the smoothies are great. They have the Guru energy drinks there which I can never seem to find in stores. The selections of vegan and vegetarian friendly foods are awesome. And I love the fact that they have a small area to sit and eat. The staff is above and beyond friendly, and so helpful. They answered any questions and made some great suggestions while I was here that made my experience out of this world. This is a place I will return to again and again

Ocalas one and only health food market. Excellent organic choices and knowledgeable personnel. They have a very nice wide selection of health and beauty products as well as vitamins. I have been going here for 20 years. They are the best and the last health food market ocala has. Love this store!!!!

I like the store, but had become leery of shopping for various products that were out of date, or soon-to-be expired. Hoping that now that Earth Fare has closed, the lack of competition from that larger store will allow shelved foods to be fresher. I will continue to shop there as long as shelved items are kept up to freshness date (chips, crackers, etc.)

Wide variety of food, vitamins, fresh bulk dried fruits, candy, herbs and spices. Good supply of vitamins and needed supplements. Great choice of healthy food.

I really loved this Earth Origins! I tried the acai bowl for the first time, delish. This store has the deli, sandwich and cold bar options, several were gluten and dairy free. The massaged kale is so awesome, and the curried chicken salad is one of the best I have had. The employees were wonderful and patient with samples and questions about their rewards program. As someone with a special diet, this location was invaluable to me while in the area. Thank you so much:)

Love the organic healthy options. The prices can be high though. However, sales prices are reasonable and every Tuesday is 10% off everything. If you have an Anytime Fitness membership you can get 5% off everyday (must show key fob), but cannot be combined with the Tuesday or any other similar discount. Earth Origins also offers a Natural Rewards Program which unlocks additional savings and builds 1 point for every dollar spent. Once you reach 350 points you get a $10 voucher.

Awful food. Awful website. Bought lentil/chick pea soup. It was after 1pm, and the soup wasnt hot, not even warm, just room temperature. The lentils were barely cooked- hard and crunchy. And it tasted like they had poured salt into it. Very unhealthy. Will never buy so-called freshly-made food from them again. I threw the soup out.And the line to pay was ridiculous. Several employees in the store but only1 cashier working. Finally, when the line had at least 8 people waiting to pay, a different employee noticed and called another cashier. My last few visits, this has been typical.Their website isnt any better than the store. No time to go back into the store and wait to return the soup, so I tried to contact Earth Origins via their website. After filling in all the required info and typing my complaints, and recommendation for better cashier training, I clicked submit. Got Unable to send email at this time. Contact site administrator if the problem continues. Tried to do again, got You may not submit another entry at this time. And there is no other option (e.g. phone).I wanted to give them a chance to respond to my complaints before posting a negative review, but guess they dont want to hear about that.This used to be a good store, dont know what has happened. I will not be going back.

Today was my first time trying out their hot bar and I was really disappointed. I ordered the beef tamales with Brussels sprouts. The tamales were super dry and crumbled to pieces. I felt like I was eating dry corn bread. The Brussels sprouts were also cold. I don’t think I will be coming back here for lunch.

I love this store and have shopped here for years, even when it used to be Mother Earth. The produce quality has gone down though and thats a huge disappoint.... Will continue to shop here for supplements and packaged organic goods but I dont want to waste money on nearly spoiled fruits and veggies. You guys can do better!

Review №49

I am giving this business this rating because of the lack of thought or compassion it took to remove such a medicinal product off the shelf. I used this store for almost a year now for one specific product (bee delightful CBD honey). Now that it is under new management they no longer sell anything CBD. I use this product to manage my eye pain from years of trauma done to my eyes by surgery. I met many others who use this same product (cashiers included) to treat seizures, depression, arthritis, autism, and many other conditions. Unfortunately, many of the other products out there with CBD are not formulated correctly. And can be dangerous to the body. Without the proper research or information provided many community members now have to look else were to treat their conditions with less effective, harmful products.

The selection at this store is okay but the cleanliness of the store is disgusting -the bathrooms resemble those at gas stations! I bought about 3 lbs. of whole kamut grain from the bulk section but about a few days later I go to get the grain (still tied up in the plastic produce bag from store) only to discover the bag is full of black bugs eating the grain! What a disgusting place. Never going back. Man, do I miss Wards in Gainesville. Ocala has zero decent health food stores. I have to order everything from Amazon.
