    Glut is a one-of-a-kind place. It's not a commercial grocery. It's a cooperative. This gives the store a certain attitude and spirit. I've been shopping here for close to 30 years. It really hasn't changed much in that time. If you want no human interaction and a rapid check-out, then go elsewhere because that's not what Glut is focused on. If there are few customers at Glut, then, okay, a quick stop is possible. But don't count on it. And actually, that can be a positive experience. It's a throw-back, but in a good way. Glut sells quality organic food. That's what I shop here for. I can find the unusual brand; buy carrots singly; get my important soup-making ingredients--and more. In spring/summer, there are nice herb and veggie seedlings available. The story of how Glut came to be is very interesting; the staff and volunteers who ensure that Glut keeps chugging along are to be applauded (see website). Just bear in mind, you'll have to be patient if the line is long. I feel it's worth it.

    During the course of this pandemic I have been doing a lot of shopping a Asian and Central American markets, avoiding the chains to stay away from the crowds and so that I can experiment with the different curries, sauces and veggies. Another thing that I have been doing more is shopping at organic markets and Glut is one of my new favorites. Though things are different, Glut fits perfectly in a community holistic and healthful community. I enjoy making smoothies and like the selection of fresh vegetables, nuts, seeds and powdered herbs and roots that are perfect for this endeavor. I also enjoy the locally produced juices that are sold here. And to top matters off, not only is the staff nice and helpful, you can't not love a place that has a poster of former Federal City College professor, Jazz musician, poet, etc. Gil Scott-Heron

    Lots of powdered deliciousness

    My husband and I have been here twice after returning from a trip to Minneapolis, where food co-ops are grand and ubiquitous. Here in DC (or the greater DC area), such places are hard to find. My husband researched and found Glut, and we're so happy we did This is one of the few groceries where you can get dozens of bulk items - oats, grains, pastas, nuts/seeds, etc - at reasonable prices (cheaper than Whole Foods, wooo!). We have stocked up on their oats...you can clearly see and taste a difference between these oats and the ones you buy at a regular grocery store. Olive oil (and a few other oils) are also sold in bulk. Economic and environmental win! There is a good selection of organic and local produce, honey, teas, herbs, etc. Don't miss the eggs! Pasture-raised eggs are the highest quality, higher than cage free...you can't get that at most grocery stores. You pay more, but if you know you are going to use the eggs in the next few days or week, get a carton that is closer to the expiration date - it will be discounted (like $2/dozen 3-4 days before expiration date). We go through a ton of eggs in our house so that is a total steal for us, and the quality is unparalleled. Barely expired produce is also sold at a discount. This is such a wonderful alternative to what most stores do - simply chuck it and move on. This produce can still be used if you take a little bit more time with preparation, or can be fed to animals, etc. They clearly want to see less food waste and are helping to facilitate that movement, even in small steps. The store is small and feels cramped, and it can smell a little funky. But we've had really great experiences with the helpful staff. We're so glad Glut is so close to DC, and we're happy to have this in our rotation of food supply stores.

The strawberry is my favorite flavor as it can double as a jelly on toast! The beverages are amazing. I've enjoyed the sea moss soaps and I stock up on the shea butters. They last awhile and smell great. This is a great group of people I will always cherish moments of sharing watermelon and juice samples. Thankful for this space.

    This is a first! I was so engaged that I forgot to take pictures! Yvette greeted me with amazing…read morewarmth. She knew all about the conditions that I was concerned with and was able to offer several alternatives using natural herbs and supplements, to attain my goals. I sampled the sea moss gel, which was actually good tasting because they add real fruit. I invested in some essential oils, body, butters, and hair preparations made from top grade natural ingredients. Each product smells delicious! I am looking forward to excellent results. As Yvette said, it never hurts to reduce the toxic load of body products that comes from putting synthetics on our skin instead of natural, edible products. We parted with hugs and smiles. After all, our skin eats (absorbs)! I will visit again and I highly recommend, especially due to the warm, welcoming ambience that this shop has created. By the way, they are so honest that if they don't carry a particular supplement, they will send you to someone who does carry it. Awesome!
