Maya’s Organics & Vitamins

This place is great!!! I was dying of ecstasy when this place first opened. An organic food market! In my neighborhood! TDF!!! Seriously, there are almost no organic markets in the area. Before this place opened, if you wanted organic food, you’d have to hop a bus for about 40 minutes. Not pleasant! Since they opened, I’ve checked them out about once (or more) times a week and I must say that it gets better every time. The selection increases and I do believe they’re also getting fresher items. Now, they’ve got a lot more organic fruits (mangoes — oh joy!, melons, lots of apples and pears). Plus they’ve got an array of specialty grains, nuts, and rice along with green and/​or organic toiletries, cleaning products, and of course… Vitamins! They also have a deli where you can order organic sandwiches and such, but I don’t have the menu with me to comment on it.
The prices here are pretty standard as far as organic markets go. Some things I do wish they could finagle the price down with their wholesalers, so the retail price could be more reasonable (sigh), but all in all I can’t complain. Organic costs, but do you really want to put a price on your health… Who am I kidding?! Yes, factor in the cost while you shop. I set a budget for essentials and stick to it. Though there are plenty exotic & tempting items that any foodie would love (the mangoes and dandelion greens are my personal favorites).
