I like to get their soaps as stocking stuffers as they are interesting and most options are plastic free. They had some organic vegan chocolate as well as unique chapsticks. I overhead their eggnog sold out early this year so apparently it's very popular. The employees are very helpful and attempted to give me ideas on other brands or stores to try when an item I was looking for wasn't available (they have lots of sls free toothpaste, but they were also fluoride free). The store is always well maintained, clean, and organized. Everything is labelled with a clear price on the item itself so no confusion. Always a nice visit.

Down To Earth is a natural foods and health store. It seems to be the only one in Mount Vernon…read more That's not counting places like Wal-Mart. It has a nice selection of health products. The prices are all over the place but comparable to other independent stores. I was looking for a few things and came in to support a local business. It has a pretty large selection considering how small the store is. There's several shelves of vitamins. It also has some food. They have vegan nutrition bars that are about $2 each, which is okay. I like supporting independent businesses. It's even better when they're health food stores. This is one of the coolest hidden places in Mount Vernon.

What a fantastic store!

I think I have more respect for this shop now, then I did when I was a teen…read more The JoAd shop was established in the same building after the Central market (that I worked for) went out of business. It's an Amish natural foods, and herbs market. And honestly I really enjoy this place as a young adult that is trying to eat better. First of all, their deli section where they make sandwiches is amazing. The size of these sandwiches are almost too much! haha. And it comes with a side as well as a pickle, all for an affordable price. Along with that they have a bunch or market style isles that have natural herbs and produce. enough to keep you looking for about an hour or so. The staff are all friendly people, that are helpful and quick at what they do. It's totally worth checking out if you want to become more natural with your cooking.

Ok, I got hooked on these Too Good Eats artisan Drinks, specifically the Pineapple Hibiscus Ginger…read moredrink. At $7 to $8 for a drink it's an occasional treat but can't find them everywhere. I was not familiar with Bexley Natural Market but saw from the Too Good Eats website that the market carried them so off I went exploring. Parkign lot is limited and that area of Cassady Avenue was a little busy but I was able to get in and out ok and find a spot to park. The staff interaction was ok but REALLY missed an opportunity to sell the market and what they are about. I had asked about the membership and the bland explanations really didn't say much at all and the interaction was not very inviting and kind of dismissive. I would have been happy that some new traffic came in and showed an interest. Anyway, the market offers all kinds of items from produce, vegan options, natural drinks, and grocery items. It appears the main focus is supporting local farmers and vendors in the area. I will come back and take another look around but was super happy they had the drinks I liked. If interested- I found online that the membersip is $30 one-time payment and annual dues of $45 that provides 5% to 8% off and monthly coupons & promotions valued at $100 a year in savings. They also offer member-only events and activities. I found out more about the store from their website, if interested, you can check them out at www.bexleynatrualmarket.org.

I'm not sure where to start. This building itself holds a special place in my heart. From…read morepractically living out of the third floor apartment in my twenties, to collecting random and weird pieces from Clossmans Antiques that I still have ten plus years later, this place simply attracts cool things. These days Gemini's is running out of the space. They have a huge collection of minerals and healing stones and crystals. I absolutely loved their colorful glass collection, books on tarot, beautiful jewelry, selection of teas, and candles. It's a giant space and there's more tucked around every corner. The second floor even houses leftover antiques. It's a fabulous place to thrift. I ended up leaving with a gorgeous piece of aurora quartz, a hematite ring, a large selenite wand, and a nice size junk of tumbled jasper. All for about twenty bucks. The prices were great and I'm super pleased with my purchase. The staff was also so friendly and helpful. The entire place smelled like sage, I loved every bit of it and I'll be back!

My experience with Francie from Leaves Of Life was not a good one. I spent over $700 to get testing…read moredone when I first got there, I had numerous questions about my test that I emailed Francie, over the year that I was there I probably emailed her over a handful of times, not once did she respond to any of my questions in regards to bloodwork follow up appointments etc. I eventually had to call the office and ask... Does Francie get these emails? The office staff seemed too brushed me aside and say she'll get back to you when she can she's on vacation ( this was the second time I was told this in a matter of five months) she responded...never... She never once responded to an email in regards to questions and even over text message I had to remind her to please look at my bloodwork and give me feedback, I had to constantly hound her to respond. If I did this in my work I would be fired and I would have zero clients. Being a Health practitioner and handling peoples health and especially people with health anxiety and not at all responding to an email or even tests , in other words not doing your job, why is this tolerated at Leaves Of Life? Francie herself is a kind person but when I go there all she does is hook me up to the biofeedback machine and Leaves for a hour , when I ask her about different issues that I'm going through, with my health, she has not given me any protocols, nothing to really help with anything that came back from the $700 worth of test that I did, If I show her bloodwork from my primary care she doesn't even know what the tests mean admittedly and doesn't seem to want to take the time to respond to all my health concerns . I still have the same issues, I did not get any better from spending a year with Francie, I did not feel heard or seen given The fact that zero emails were responded to, when I told her some sad news in regards to my life and why I would not be coming back to Leaves Of Life to see her moving forward, once again I was met with a very loud and disrespectful silence. She could not even bother to thank me for being her patient and the experience we had that was not good even though I thanked her. Leaves Of Life why do you keep somebody like this around there's a very huge disrespect and lack of empathy for clients here. If Francie can't even communicate with her patients why is she even working here? Even the phlebotomist said "oh yes she's known to not respond to emails " why is this accepted in any place of work especially healthcare? Seems like people there care more about themselves than their actual clients, even the front desk did not apologize for all of the missed emails from Francie. I would not recommend Leaves Of Life and certainly not Francie to anybody if they care about their health and being respected by a Health practitioner they're paying very good money to See!
