MOM's in Alexandria is helping keep clear, blue, skies. They buy 100% of their electricity from renewable sources.

If you haven't been to My Organic Market (MOM's), you really should go. They have so many products that no one else seems to have. ...things like aged miso from small specialty companies, "raw food" snack bars, snack bars with lots of Omega oils. They have those great smelling bar soaps that the store cuts off a big block for you. Their selection of pet foods with only "human grade" ingredients is outstanding, much better than other health food stores and about as good as the best small specialty pet supply stores. They have pre-bagged and priced bulk items at great bulk food prices. If you normally shop at Whole Foods Market, check out My Organic Market. You may find a lot of great surprises.
