What's Happening Locally

Fresh and Local



Wild Oats, located in the beautiful hills and valleys of western Massachusetts, is close to many small organic farmers and food producers. As a small, independent cooperative business, we are guided by the high standards, taste preferences, and healthy eating habits of our members and customers -- not by a sales plan from corporate headquarters.

We are able to offer a large and changing variety of locally grown produce every day, in addition to local artisanal cheeses, local handmade yogurt, and local dairy products. We also stock locally raised eggs, grass-fed beef, local naturally raised poultry, locally produced bulk nuts and seeds, kombucha, and much, much more. When you visit our store, you will find that every one of our departments offers local items. Just look for the “Eat Local” decal, or ask one of our staff members for help.
