Organic Roots was created as a reflection of my true passion for wholesome foods and nutrition. In our fast-paced, fast-food society, we seem to have lost the connection between our health and foods we eat. At ORGANIC ROOTS, we are committed to produce and serve the most pure, organic and artfully crafted slow foods and to provide a friendly place of thoughtful and healthy eating and gathering. Our food is hand-crafted with fresh, seasonal, organic and local ingredients and we make a conscious effort to practice sustainability in our business efforts. Our dedicated team of staff cares about your well-being and is here to help you maintain good health. Visit our new and expanded natural food market and feed your body & soul with our delicious soups, salads, sandwiches and daily specials. Menu changes daily. Many gluten-free and vegan options. Dine-in or take-out!
